About Venom

Venom received his name under false pretenses; this sweet tabby boy is anything but venomous. Nicknamed lil’ Vinny for his habit of sitting on his bum like a little old man, he's come a long way from being shy and nervous in his new surroundings. While he was initially wary, he never lashed out, instead showing a soft side revealed through his love for Churu treats and chin scratches. Now settled in, Venom enjoys the cozy life of a couch cat, spending his days napping in the sun and meowing at mealtime. He has a playful side, taking joy in annihilating his mouse toy and enjoying head rubs. While he can be skittish around loud noises—he's particularly wary of ceiling fans—he thrives in a calm and loving environment. Venom is quite comfortable around new adults and would be delighted to find a quiet home where he can keep you company. He can be adopted either on his own or with a buddy.
