About Wally

Wally is a sweet baby boy who has just begun to come out of his shell. He's currently living with his sister Eileen, and they must be adopted together. Wally and Eileen arrived from a feral cat community. While Eileen has embraced human companionship, Wally remains a little more reserved, observing from a distance and gradually warming up to his foster family. With time and patience, he has started to trust humans and even enjoys a gentle pet or tummy rub if he recognizes you. Wally loves to play with Eileen. They spend countless hours darting through tunnels, batting balls around, and exploring their cat tree. This sweet boy thrives in a calm environment where he can take his time adjusting at his own pace. He’ll do best in a home without small children or dogs, but he gets along well with other cats. Is your home the perfect place for Wally and Eileen to flourish?
