About Patchouli

Patchouli is as close to a living teddy bear as you could get. He loves lounging in cozy cat beds, but his personality shines during those delightful bursts of energy when he zooms around the house. With a round face and goofy antics, he brings endless entertainment, transforming ordinary moments into laughter. Enjoying pets with his eyes closed and mouth open, Patchouli follows people around hoping for extra snacks. His ideal home would include another outgoing cat who matches his energy, along with patient humans ready to help him ease into indoor life. Rescued from the streets during a blizzard earlier this year, Patchouli has come a long way. Initially cautious of humans, he quickly found his confidence, especially when it came to food. Eager to explore, he loves company and has always wanted to follow other cats in his foster homes. Patchouli is about 3-4 years old, neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. While he is FIV positive, he shows no secondary symptoms or concerns. If you’d like to meet this charming boy, complete the adoption application and mention Nora as his rescuer.
