About Obie

Obie is a charming little guy with a sweet demeanor and a gentle personality. However, place him in a lively public setting, and he quickly transforms into a spirited little whirlwind. He loves to curl up in laps or perch on shoulders, stretching out during his cat naps with his human close by. Playtime is a theatrical event for Obie, featuring dramatic jumps, slides, and energetic chases with his brother, Joey. While he may start out with a hissing greeting to new people, it doesn’t take long for him to show his affectionate side, purring contentedly in your arms soon after. Obie would thrive with another friendly young cat. He cherished his bond with his brother, now adopted, and is ready to find a new companion. To schedule a meet and greet, complete the online adoption application or visit him during our weekly event at PetSmart in Asheville, NC, on Saturdays from 12-4pm. Act quickly—there's a $50 discount for adopting a pair of kittens!
