Cardoza, often called Doza or Dozer, has a story that sticks with you. After being abandoned at the Hilo transfer station, he was lucky enough to meet a pair of kind men who made sure he was safe and cared for—even if it wasn't a real home. Tony, his most loyal friend there, always dreamed of a better life for him. For nearly three years, Cardoza has watched and waited, greeting familiar faces every day, hoping for a family of his own. Now, he finally gets his chance. Cardoza is outgoing and quick to charm, and his gentle, even temperament makes him the kind of companion anyone would hope to find. He’s generous with head bumps, loves a warm lap, and is always seeking a good cuddle. Underneath his calm exterior, there's a cat ready to give his heart to someone who will cherish him. He does well with other cats and children, but isn’t a fan of dogs. Cardoza has waited long enough for a family who will adore him and make sure he’s never overlooked again. Ready to fall in love?
