About Tickles

Tickles was discovered by some kids near his foster mom’s home. They named him and provided a cardboard box for shelter. Recognizing his friendliness, and after tending to a minor upper respiratory infection, his foster mom brought him inside where he has since fully recovered and is now ready to find his forever home. This sweet boy sports adorable, thick tom cat cheeks and craves affection. He enjoys cuddling, rolling over for belly rubs, and is quite the chatterbox, ready for conversations at any moment. Tickles is playful with his favorite mouse toys, catnip kickers, and enjoys leaping for feather toys, though he's quick to pause to soak up some pets. Adopting Tickles means welcoming a companion who has a lot of love to give. He deserves a special home to share that love. Click apply to start the adoption process.
