About Squish

Squish is a charming 4.5-year-old male cat looking for a foster home, ideally while entering our rescue. This friendly boy loves soaking up the sun, bird-watching, and chasing his favorite stick toys. At 17 pounds, he's a larger cat who relishes snuggling and receiving belly rubs. Though he's sweet with adults, he hasn't interacted with young kids yet. As a former stray, Squish has thrived indoors but needs to be the only pet in the home due to territorial tendencies. He's experienced some stress-related health issues when living with another cat but has been symptom-free since being separated. A calm household with no other pets is best for Squish, where he can initially settle in a quiet space before exploring his new environment. He's house trained, altered, and up to date on vaccinations. Reach out today to meet Squish and see if you can provide the loving home he deserves!
