My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Starboard (11 months old) came to us last spring with a litter of kittens abandoned on a sail boat in a Baltimore harbor. The momma cat ran off the boat when the owner came on board and she never returned. Luckily, Tails High had a nursing mom to take him and his siblings under her wing. Starboard loves to be snuggled and will rub his head on your chin. He can be shy at first and may take a few weeks to get used to a new place or person, but he's getting much better! Since he has spent most of his life up to this point on a small sailboat, this reserved cat may be a good match for a small apt or studio.

Tell the Tails High adoption coordinator you're interested in this cat.
