Story
Cantarito, an indoor/outdoor cat, was born on July 17th, 2023 to a stray mom along with his sister. We had been allowing the mother cat to roam our yard, garage, and even inside our home at times when he and his sister were born, and our family helped raise them alongside Mama! As Cantarito grew up, he proved to be the friendliest, being the very first to approach our Boston Terrier and becoming quick friends with her, snuggling and playing with her. He also enjoys playing with his sister and mom, though in their playfights the girls usually win! When it comes to new people, he prefers keeping his distance but still staying in the same room as strangers at first, then eventually allowing people to pet him. He's even started purring with new company in as little as half an hour! Cantarito is very snuggly, enjoying being held and following people wherever they go, sometimes even trying to go to the bathroom! He is also a bed cat, sleeping next to or even on top of us!
