About Eddie Van Halen

Eddie Van Halen, a lovely gray boy, was discovered living under a porch in Beaufort with his seven littermates. Initially, he was scared of human contact, but since being fostered, he has learned that people can be kind. He has developed a fondness for food and treats, enjoys wrestling with toys, and adores snuggling in his foster's lap. Though he's extremely affectionate, Eddie is still a bit hesitant around new people. He may need time to build trust, but his charm is undeniable—he will even block his siblings to get extra attention! Eddie has made remarkable progress and is expected to continue blossoming into an even sweeter kitty. Please note that we require kittens to be adopted in pairs unless there’s already a playful cat in the home. Experience the joy of adopting Eddie Van Halen and possibly a companion as well.
