About Kanaloa

Meet Kanaloa (pronounced Ka-Nuh-Low-uh), a striking male Domestic Short Hair looking to shine as your one and only star. This handsome boy arrived at the shelter on October 10th, 2026, brought in by a caring community member. Kanaloa is proud to be part of the "no cats club," meaning he prefers to have all the attention for himself—no sharing allowed. His daily adventures consist of scaling tall cat trees, lounging on soft pillows, and keeping a lookout from sunny window sills for the neighborhood bird activities. To help Kanaloa settle into your home, start him off in a cozy space where he can unpack his big personality and build confidence before exploring. Bringing along a top-loading cat carrier for his journey to your home will ensure he arrives safely and comfortably. If you want to win his heart quickly, a few tasty treats will go a long way.
