About Theo

Theo is our spicy, shy boy! He likes to hide his sweet side behind a tough and vocal exterior. After a couple of days, he warmed up to me, revealing his affectionate nature. Now, this little guy adores getting pets and cuddling. He might need some time to adjust in his new home, but once he chooses you as his person, it’s incredibly rewarding. Theo would thrive in a household with another cat, particularly a confident companion who can help him feel secure. He has already shown a connection with Otto and Cleo, both playful cats that could guide him out of his shell and into a more confident self. Located in Columbia, MO, Theo is ready to find his forever home. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
