About Tommy

Tommy is a gentle soul who came from a hoarding situation, so he might be a bit shy initially. He'll need some time to settle into his new environment. Setting him up in a quiet sanctuary room with essentials like food, water, a cozy bed, toys, a scratching post, and a litter box will make a big difference in helping him adjust. This space should have hiding spots and perches to provide comfort and security. After he gets used to his room, you can begin to slowly introduce him to other pets and the rest of the house. Tommy will thrive with patience, and he may benefit from the companionship of another friendly cat to guide him. Give him the home he has been waiting for. Apply today!
