About Cornelius

Cornelius is a charming 3-month-old brown and black ticked tabby domestic shorthair. This little guy has all his claws, is neutered, microchipped, FIV/FeLV negative, and up-to-date on vaccinations. His ticked coat is striking, and those warm green eyes will steal your heart. From the moment he entered foster care, Cornelius made fast friends, instantly flopping over to invite pets and purrs. He has a playful and affectionate personality. This kitten loves to engage with toys, sprint through tunnels, and cozy up for naps in cat trees or on his foster mom's lap. Cornelius currently shares his space with his siblings, Beatrice and Tomtom. The ideal home for him would include another young feline companion or the option to adopt one of his siblings. He has also done well with a gentle dog and would adjust to another calm dog in the household. A quieter home with older kids would suit him nicely. He loves both wet and dry food, is fully house trained, and uses his scratching posts appropriately. Cornelius is a confident and loving kitty, eager to find his forever home. The adoption fee is $50 and he’s located in Kenosha, WI.
