About Mateo

Mateo is a charming little kitten who loves attention and is more than ready for a loving home. He arrived at Mountain Pet Rescue after facing a tough start in life, having survived nearly starving while living in a crate outside. Thanks to a kind-hearted teen girl, he and his siblings were rescued just in time. Now, after overcoming hurdles and thriving, Mateo deserves the comfort and love that every cat craves. This sweet boy no longer has to wonder about his next meal or worry about outside dangers. With his warm personality, he will surely steal your heart. Mateo is ready to find a family where he can play, explore, and cuddle. If you’re interested in giving this precious kitten a forever home, fill out the online adoption application for a meet and greet, or come see him during our weekend adoption event at PetSmart, Bleachery Blvd, from 12-4pm. Let's find him the loving family he deserves!
