My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Hi there, I’m Newton—a mellow red tabby with a soft heart and an easygoing soul. I’m a real sweetheart, if I do say so myself. I’ve got this affectionate, go-with-the-flow personality that makes it easy for me to get along with just about everyone—humans, other cats… I’m all about good company and good vibes.

I love being part of the action, though I’m more of a quiet observer than the center of attention. You’ll usually find me lounging nearby, watching the world go by (or the TV—I really do enjoy a good show). I especially love sunbathing by the window, soaking up the rays while keeping an eye on the neighborhood birds and squirrels. Being held and loved on? That’s one of my favorite things. I’ll melt right into your arms.

The care team here at Sheltering Hands has a special place in their hearts for me—they say I’m one of their favorites. And while that means a lot to me, I know what I really need is a forever home of my own. Honestly, I’m not sure why I haven’t been adopted yet. I’m a really great cat—sweet, calm, and full of love just waiting to be shared.

So, if you’re looking for a loyal companion who will be by your side (or at your feet, or in your lap), I think we might just be a perfect match. Come meet me—I’ll be waiting.

Estimated Birthdate: 7/20/2023

Likes: Watching TV, lots of love and affection, and just about everyone - humans and kitties alike!

Dislikes: Not being noticed - I'm a great guy!

To schedule a meet/greet with this pawsome kitty, we recommend that you complete a Pre-Adoption Application, which is available here:   https://www.shelteringhands.org/adoptionapplication.
