About Stoopy

Stoopy, affectionately known as Stoop Cat, is the definition of a loyal shadow. Rescued from a tough start huddled beneath a porch through winter, it took him a few days to show his true colors. Once Stoopy felt safe, his foster family discovered a cat bursting with affection, always wanting to be close, whether purring in their lap or quietly observing nearby. He’s outgoing and curious, ready to explore every nook but just as happy lounging as you go about your day. Despite his initial reservation, Stoopy loves being around people—he follows his family room to room and is happiest in their company. He thrives in a household with other pets and children, fitting in easily with dogs, cats, and kids alike. Travel isn’t an issue for him. While he has a couple of medical concerns—congenital heart disease (non-medicated) and allergies requiring special food and daily medications—he doesn’t let anything hold him back. A cone helps him avoid overgrooming during flare-ups, but he's just as spirited and energetic. If you’re looking for a steadfast, loving companion, Stoopy is more than ready to settle in with his forever family. Click apply to start the adoption process.
