Named after the band behind "Teenage Dirtbag," Wheatus is a sweet, loving boy with just a hint of adolescent sass. He has traveled all the way from Qatar in search of his forever family. At 2 years old, Wheatus is a laid-back cuddlebug who lives for chin scratches, head rubs, and quiet snuggles. While he may occasionally give a gentle swat or nibble when he's had enough attention, it's all part of his tough-guy act. Underneath that bravado is a soft-hearted cat looking for a patient family that appreciates a kitty who shows affection on his own terms. Wheatus enjoys supervising his humans, bird-watching from the window, and curling up beside you on the couch or bed. He's also a quirky guy with a refined palate, especially when it comes to sardine- and salmon-flavored wet food. A far cry from a dirtbag, Wheatus is a charming companion who is sure to bring plenty of love, laughter, and joy to a lucky household. Interested in adopting Wheatus?

Our policy is to adopt kittens in pairs. We find that kittens are much happier when they have a companion and they tend to expend their youthful energy on each other rather than on your couch! Kittens are adorable, but older cats can be wonderful pets as well and they tend to be overlooked, so please consider adopting an adult cat or two!
