About Hickory

Meet Hickory, a charming buff tabby boy with a playful spirit. This affectionate young cat loves to be around people and greets them with a delightful chirp and an inviting gaze, eager to be picked up. Once in your arms, his purrs echo his contentment. Bottle-fed since eight days old, Hickory has a unique personality and doesn’t quite understand he’s a cat! He thrives in environments where someone is home most of the day, or with a friendly kitty companion, or even better, one of his littermates such as Fern, Cypress, or Buddy. Hickory is up to date on vaccines and has tested negative for FeLV/FIV. He'll be ready for his forever home after his neuter and microchip procedure in mid-November. If you’re looking for a loving companion, Hickory is waiting for you to make his dreams come true. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
