Meet Pinto! A Loving Companion Looking for His Forever Home

This sweet and affectionate guy has had a rough start but is ready to give all the love he has to the right person. Pinto is a neutered adult male black short-haired domestic cat who was sadly abandoned by his previous family. Despite that, he’s a total sweetheart who adores head scratches and will gladly crawl into your lap for some extra love. He’s the kind of cat who thrives on affection and would make a perfect companion for someone who enjoys cuddling and spending time with a gentle, affectionate friend.

Though he has been great with humans, Pinto has shown he prefers a slow introduction to other pets. He’s been around our resident adult cat and dog without any aggressive behavior, but he can get a little tense when they come too close to his belongings. For this reason, a home where he can be the only furry friend (or a patient adopter with an existing pet) would be ideal. He might appreciate having some space of his own to feel safe, but with a little time and understanding, he could adjust to a multi-pet household.

When he’s not enjoying pets and cuddles, Pinto loves to play with string toys and little mice, but he also enjoys relaxing in a quiet spot for a good nap. He’s litter box trained, eating well, and ready to join a loving home where he can finally feel secure and cherished.

If you`re looking for a sweet, calm companion who just wants love and attention, Pinto is the one for you. He may have had a rough past, but he has a heart full of potential, and he`s waiting for the right person to give him a second chance.
