About Tanner

Tanner is a long, lanky, and striking cat with an adventurous spirit and a hint of sass. He confidently explores his surroundings but tends to be nervous around people. While he might hiss when uncertain, Tanner is not aggressive and doesn’t bite or swat. Right now, he prefers not to be held or cuddled, so a calm and patient adopter is essential to help him learn that being close to humans can be positive. Tanner’s motivation? Food! He eagerly races down from his perch at mealtimes, and treats are key to winning his heart and building trust. A friendly, confident feline companion could aid in his socialization. Tanner can be adopted as a singleton too, but it’s crucial that his new person offers him daily interaction. Homes with children or dogs would not suit him, as he thrives in a quiet environment. With time, Tanner may discover the joy of being close to humans, or he might always prefer to keep his paws firmly on the ground. Either way, his future owner will witness the growth of this handsome, adventurous boy as he gains confidence. If you're ready to invest the time and patience Tanner needs, he's waiting for you in Salt Lake City, UT. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
