Howdy, I’m Phineas! My friends call me Phinny and I’m a striking orange tabby fellow with big sage green eyes. You can tell by my tipped-ear badge of courage that I was rescued from a hard life on the street as a wee kitten.
I came here after I lost my elderly guardian. I’ve been sad and a little scared, but am ready to find a new family who will love me as much as I loved her.
I’m your classic Kitty Admin, the one who wants to be with you, whatever you’re doing. I’ll be your ginger shadow, helping you out and making sure your life runs beautifully with my happy purrs, especially if I can drink out of the faucet or have a water fountain! I will probably be a cuddly cat once I’m home and feeling safe again.
At about 7 years young, I’m still in my prime, ready to play at the drop of a cat toy! I love all kinds of kitty wands as long as you’re at the other end of them. I’m an independent little fellow too, and can entertain myself if I need to.
I’m a tough little survivor and have the scars to prove it! I was forced to live outside at my last home where there were lots of dangers, both from other animals and from poisons used to control them. When I was rescued by a sister shelter, I was very thin and had a huge wound on my neck. My body has done a great job healing and all I have left is a little bald patch. I may require ongoing medication to help me keep on track. Please talk to one of my representatives at Happy Cats for more details!
I do fine with other cats and should do well in just about any family. We don’t know whether I’m fearful of dogs because of my stressful outside time, but we can test with one of our cat-friendly dog volunteers if you have both at your house.
I can be adopted for $100 which includes my neuter, vaccinations, microchip, food and litter starter kit, and a free well-kitty checkup to help you get started. Through September, I also come with my very own Honey Pot bed to snuggle in!
