Meet Pinocchio… and no, the name isn’t because he lies—it’s because you’ll constantly be questioning reality. 🐾 At 2.5 years old, Pinocchio is equal parts adorable angel and tiny, unpredictable chaos gremlin. One minute he’s purring like a motor, rubbing up against you, and playing like the sweetest, most lovable cat you’ve ever met… and the next minute? Well. Let’s just say the vibe can shift dramatically. Pinocchio LOVES to play and is often a goofy, affectionate guy who seems like he just wants to be your best friend. But he also has some… strong opinions. And when those opinions hit, he may decide—without warning—that your hand is the enemy and commit to that decision with impressive dedication. Because of this, Pinocchio is looking for a very specific home: adults only, with a great sense of humor and a solid respect for personal space (his, not yours). Cat-savvy humans who understand body language—and maybe enjoy living a little on the edge—will appreciate his unique charm. And just to keep things interesting, Pinocchio is also on a prescription urinary diet. So yes, he’s a high-maintenance king with a dramatic personality and a curated menu. But here’s the thing—if you can appreciate him for exactly who he is, Pinocchio is endlessly entertaining, ridiculously cute, and never, ever boring. If you’ve been thinking, “My life is just a little too peaceful,” Pinocchio is ready to fix that. Please be sure to read a cat's full bio before applying! We do our best to keep bios updated as we learn more about each cat or as circumstances change. The bio is the best place to find the most current and important information about their needs, personality, and ideal home. Thank you for your interest in adopting from Scruffy Paws Animal Rescue!
