Zippy is a 3-year and 2-month-old male Domestic Short Hair, characterized by his large size and a striking black and white tuxedo coat. He is neutered, has up-to-date vaccinations, and is ready for adoption in Greensboro, NC. While he may have a feisty side, he's known for being friendly too.

About Zippy

Zippy joined our rescue after losing his owner, and he’s a friendly guy who enjoys being petted and scratched. He adores vertical scratchers and wand toys. While he gets along with most of the other foster cats, he tends to keep to himself. He has shown a tendency to bully some of the more timid cats, so a home with confident feline companions would suit him best. Alternatively, he could thrive as the only cat in the household. His adoption fee includes FeLV/FIV testing, neuter surgery, vaccinations, deworming, and a microchip. Ready to make Zippy a part of your family? Apply now!
