About Matteo

Matteo is a buff orange tabby with distinctive crinkled ears, giving him a memorable look and a dash of character that hints at a rugged past outside. Though he’s a bit hard of hearing—likely from life on the streets—he still has plenty to say and isn’t shy about sharing his thoughts when it’s time for affection or dinner. His ideal home is one that values calm, quiet companionship, plus someone willing to offer gentle pets and let him settle in at his own pace. You’ll find Matteo to be laid-back and loving, happy to curl up in a cozy spot and bask in a relaxed, safe atmosphere. Kids with cat experience do well around him as long as they respect his boundaries. He’s been housed alone for a while, so he may need time to adapt to sharing space with other cats, but gentle introductions could go smoothly. Found outside a local hair salon, he’s ready for warmth, kindness, and the stress-free indoor life he deserves. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
