About Onyx

Onyx is ready to find his forever home! Once a cherished cat in a mobile home park, he’s on a quest for the companionship he loves.

He currently lives harmoniously with other kitties, apart from one who is still warming up to him. Onyx is neutered, microchipped, and has been treated for fleas, lice, and worms, ensuring he’s healthy and ready for adoption. While his coat has some medium length features, it appears to be short at the moment and hints at his beautiful Tortie potential. His adoption fee covers his spay, vaccinations, and overall wellness.
