About Thompson

Meet Thompson, a spirited 8-month-old gray tabby who shows off a mix of charm and street-smart sass. Rescued from the streets of Highland Park, he might greet new people with a hiss—don’t take it to heart; it's just his way of keeping up a tough exterior. Underneath that facade is a shy yet curious kitten who longs for patience and affection in a quiet home. He’s playful and has a soft spot for lickable treats, which will help win him over. With time and a caring approach, Thompson has the potential to evolve into a loving companion. He is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccines. Thompson gets along with other cats, making him a great addition to a multi-pet household. He’s house trained and is looking for someone to show him the joys of indoor life.
