Theodore is a male, 5-year-old Domestic Medium Hair. This small cat is up to date on vaccinations and ready to find his forever home in Springfield, MA.

About Theodore

Meet Theodore! This affectionate tabby is a purring, cuddle machine who enjoys sleep, food, and gentle grooming. He has previously lived with other cats and would appreciate a slow introduction if you have one at home. Although Theodore has been comfortable around teens and young children, he'd prefer a home with older teens moving forward, where he can feel secure and relaxed. Known for his laid-back demeanor, Theodore is the perfect companion who will happily curl up on your couch, making your home his own. Change can be challenging for him, so be prepared for a nervous cat upon arrival. Create a safe space with a litter box, food, and water to help Theodore ease into his new environment. With a little patience, he will gradually gain confidence, and a behavior plan will guide you both through the transition. Ready to invite Theodore into your life? What are you waiting for?
