Téo’s story almost ended before it began—he and his little family were rescued from a municipal shelter just hours before euthanasia.
At only 4–5 weeks old, despite being the biggest kitten, he was the slowest of the litter of 3 to warm up, but with patience, love, and churu, this gentle, sensitive soul has truly blossomed.
Téo is a sweet, affectionate kitty who adores other cats. He’s a pro at snuggling and playing with feline friends, and he’s even made peace with the calm, medium-sized dogs in his foster home (faster than he warmed up to his foster mom—but she forgives him!).
He’s vocal and expressive, especially around mealtime, and while he can happily entertain himself, he really thrives with a playful and snuggly kitty companion by his side. A little hand-shy at times, Téo’s heart can be won with one simple trick: treats. Food is definitely his love language.
With a moderate energy level, he enjoys playtime and zoomies but is overall a calm and curious guy—never too mischievous.
Téo would do best in a quiet home with another playful, affectionate cat, and would do well with a cat-friendly dog who’s not too rambunctious. With patience and care, this gentle sweetheart will reward you with loyalty, warmth, and the cutest meal-time reminders.

AHSEM treats every adoption as "foster to adopt" This means that the first two weeks in which you have the cat is the "foster period." We do our best to ensure the right match for all involved and want to give the cat(s) time to decompress and adapt to their new environment. However, we realize sometimes things don't work out as expected. Therefore, during that two-week period, if something doesn’t work out you can bring the cat back. We will always take our cats back even after the "foster to adopt" period. We would hate to see them end up at a kill shelter, abandoned, or any other unsafe situation.
