Tom has a friendly disposition, getting along wonderfully with other cats, dogs, and people alike. He adapted quickly in his foster home, making it a point to befriend everyone, including his feline siblings. When it comes to his humans, Tom turns on the affection. He adores cuddling in laps and will rub his face against yours seeking kisses. You'll often find him kneading away affectionately, careful not to extend his claws.

Given his loving nature and desire to accompany you on adventures, he could make a fantastic emotional support companion. Tom is FIV+, which likely stems from his days living outdoors. Despite this, he's fully vetted and healthy. He’s currently undergoing dental treatment and is in the process of losing his remaining teeth, but that doesn't hold him back—he enjoys all types of food! Due to being FIV+ and his dental situation, Tom needs to remain indoors unless he's on a leash with his new family. He’s ready to shower you with love as you embark on this adventure together.
