About Van

Van, also known as The Gentle Ginger Gentleman, is a delightful 5-month-old male orange tabby. He’s out of the hyper kitten phase but still carries that charming kitten spirit. With an incredibly sweet demeanor, Van prefers to observe his surroundings before cozying up to his next friend. Once he makes that connection, expect all the love and affection this boy can offer! He comes highly recommended by his foster mom, who describes him as "a little less kitten chaos, and a whole lot more orange-flavored sweetness!" Van is good with other cats and has not yet been introduced to dogs or small children. He is neutered, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, and has been tested negative for FIV/FeLV. With a microchip and a gentle nature, he’s ready for his forever home. If you think you’d like to welcome Van into your family, don't hesitate to apply!
