About Frankie

Frankie is a sweet boy looking for a loving home where he can feel secure. This big tuxedo cat will celebrate his 8th birthday in September. Despite being surrendered twice in recent years due to changes in family situations, it’s not Frankie's fault, and he deserves another chance. Shelters can be overwhelming, especially for a shy cat like Frankie. He is now thriving in a caring foster home with another cat. While they get along, Frankie would prefer a new home where he can be an only cat or share space with one who largely ignores him. His unique needs include wet food, as he has no teeth, and a calm environment with patient and loving humans. Frankie's adoption fee is waived, which covers his spaying, age-appropriate vaccinations, FIV/FELV testing, microchipping, and a complimentary wellness visit at Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital. To meet this gentle giant, contact his foster mom Carol at 602-361-1186 via text or phone. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
