About Red

Red—sometimes called Reddy—is a gentle senior cat looking for a peaceful home where he can truly relax. Estimated to be around 12 or 13 years old (born 3.22.13, which makes him an Aries—no surprise he’s got a charming, independent streak), Red came to the rescue after his longtime owner passed away. He’s handled all the upheaval with remarkable grace, showing a steady, patient nature even as he adjusts to big changes. These days, Red’s greatest pleasures are warm naps, good food, and sunlight on his fur while he watches the world go by from a window. Red has gone from outdoor neighborhood cat to dedicated indoor companion, and he’s never looked back. He prefers calm, quiet spaces where he can enjoy a slow pace and plenty of comfort. Although he’s friendly and enjoys human company (plus a good head scratch), he’s not needy or demanding. He gets along well with other mellow cats and currently lives peacefully with his housemate Grumpy—ideally, they’d be adopted together, but Red would do fine as a solo cat or with just one easygoing feline friend. He isn’t suited to busy homes or situations with lots of cats, and he’d prefer not to share space with dogs unless they’re exceptionally calm. Despite some age-related arthritis and mild eye irritation, Red still moves comfortably, uses his litterbox without fail, and has a healthy appetite. He manages treatments easily and has excellent house manners. If you want a quiet companion who brings warmth to a peaceful home, Red is ready to join you for his retirement years and share your couch—and your heart. Ready to meet your new best friend?
