About Stallone

Stallone is currently in need of a stable home. This intelligent and energetic cat faces challenges adjusting to kennel life and has been labeled as ‘At Risk’ due to his behavior. To flourish, Stallone requires engaging play sessions several times a day along with mental stimulation from activities like puzzle toys and clicker training.

Stallone might need some time to settle in, so adopters who are experienced and dedicated to managing his behaviors consistently will fit him best. He’s a sweet soul who has shown improvement since his journey began. With encouragement, he could thrive as part of a forever family. Click apply to start the adoption process.
