Kevin Whiskers has a PhD in being positively perfect! (Or should that be pawsitively purrfect?) This easygoing mellow guy would be a perfect fit into most homes, and he can't wait to hang out on the couch and watch TV with you. He's also an excellent supervisor of homework, taxes, and household chores (other than vacuuming). He will give you all the latest gossip from the neighborhood that he overheard while sitting in the window.
Kevin found himself at PAWS after his previous owner's health declined and they could no longer care for Kevin. Kevin was pretty sad about losing his home, but he's thriving in foster care! He is a social, happy cat who loves attention, but isn't pushy or needy. He's happy to hang out nearby while you take phone calls or get work done, and more than happy to get pets when you're free.
Kevin eats regular dry food and uses the litter box like a champ. His absolute favorite things are soft blankets on beds or couches, and getting pets! He has a funny squeaky purr. You just have to hear it.
Kevin will greet you at the door every day with his cheerful meows. While he's not generally a super active cat, he's been known to have occasional fits of the zoomies which are pretty hilarious! He also loves a good catnip toy and a wand toy
While Kevin has been a solo pet for most of his life, he seems like he'd get along with other mellow, cat-friendly cats or dogs who respected his space. He would also fit in well with a family with kids! His foster reports that Kevin is "basically perfect" and "extremely easy", so what are you waiting for? Reach out and meet Kevin today!
