About Curly

Meet Curly, an adorable little tabby boy who shows a remarkable spirit despite a rocky start in life. Born on May 17, 2026, Curly spent his early days living in a car with his brothers, Larry and Moe, before they were rescued. Once in a loving foster home, Curly quickly showcased his laid-back personality. He prefers to watch the other kittens play, soaking in the atmosphere before he decides to join in the fun. With a sweet disposition, he's learning to trust people and loves cuddles. Curly gets along well with other kitties, small dogs, and children, making him a fitting addition to a lively household. Although he’s particularly close to his brother Larry, he can thrive independently, especially if there’s another friendly cat around. Curly has been spayed, micro-chipped, and is up to date on vaccinations. With a bit of time and patience, he’s sure to bloom even more in his forever home. If you feel drawn to Curly, consider also the charming Larry—they make a delightful pair. Ready to make a difference in his life? Apply to adopt today!
