My story

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

Payton is a handsome mackerel tabby that carries himself with the confidence of a young adventurer. This boy is a true morning greeter with a signature long meow that lets you know the day has officially begun.

Payton is an enthusiastic conversationalist who happily narrates his needs whether he wants breakfast, pets, playtime, or just a little attention. He is affectionate, enjoys being brushed, and loves to be near his people. He can be picked up briefly and happily lounges or plays depending on what you are doing.

Payton is playful, smart, and full of personality. He loves springs, strings, and anything he can chase down a hallway. He is confident in new places, well mannered, and fearless about hopping into a carrier. He cherishes soft beds for naps and enjoys soaking up sunshine when he has access to the outdoors.

This sweet guy takes daily fluoxetine to help with mild anxiety and does well with it when hidden in food. He has a history of a urinary blockage so he will need to stay on his prescription urinary diet. He uses the litter box reliably but appreciates a clean one. He scratches on posts, tolerates nail trims, and prefers that his paws stay untouched.

Payton would enjoy a home with another friendly cat and does well with adults and gentle children. He is social, easygoing, and ready to be someone’s loyal sidekick. If you are looking for a confident, chatty, loving companion who brightens every day, Payton may be your perfect match.
