My story

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

Best Match:

  • Seeking an adopter with some experience
  • Could join a calm home with teens
  • May be okay with other cats
  • Needs to be indoor only
  • Needs an inhaler for asthma

Nacho is a friendly, handsome cat who has been through a lot, but that just makes him appreciate the simpler things in life: he’s grateful to have a warm bed, food in his bowl, and a person to pet him and play with him. If you’re willing to put in a little work for his medical needs, you’ll have a sweet, friendly shadow cat for life!

 

Nacho is always up for attention and pets from new people, but he’s also devoted to the people he knows best. He’ll always greet you with a happy meow and will talk back to you when you meow back at him. He loves hearing what you have to say! Sometimes, he will even groom your arm or leg when he’s laying nearby, just to show how much he appreciates you. For as much as he enjoys the company of people, he can also be independent and doesn’t mind being left alone for most of the day.

 

Nacho loves to play in bursts of energy, very enthusiastically, throughout the day. He can entertain himself with a ball or spring, but nothing beats a good play session with someone else. He likes chasing after wand toys, especially ones with feathers. He’ll stalk them from behind chairs or his scratching post and will scramble or jump after them like they’re his prey.

 

Nacho has a few medical needs, including feline asthma and food allergies. He’s on a special diet, which he happily eats. He's well-trained to take his asthma inhaler, as long as he gets his kibble reward.

 

Nacho is a very food motivated cat and will follow you into the kitchen anytime you go there, hoping it may be time for an early meal or special treat. He can get excited sometimes when awaiting food, and also with petting and playing- and may grab and nibble on you. Knowing cat body language and continuing to help him learn better ways to get your attention is key with this enthusiastic boy.

 

Nacho is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for FeLV and FIV. If you are interested in setting up a meeting or have more questions, please complete our Adoption Inquiry form: form.jotform.com/cattownoak/adoption-inquiries
