Louie is a 9-month-old male tuxedo cat with a playful spirit and a loving heart. We rescued him from a less than ideal living situation in a dorm room where he spent most of his life confined to a small crate, but he has quickly settled into foster life and has been an absolute joy.
This handsome boy is neutered and litter trained. He loves watching the world from his window perch, exploring new rooms, and chasing a feather or laser pointer. He is confident and social, and always excited to meet someone new. That being said, because he did not grow up around other cats, he can easily get overstimulated and start to play too rough/bite too hard with hands and feet. While part of this is just adolescent behavior, Louie would generally benefit from an experienced and patient adopter that can gently redirect his biting to his feather toys and other types of play.
Based on Louie’s past neglect, he would benefit from someone who is home more than they are not and can provide him with a predictable schedule; Louie can still be successful with someone who works full time in office, but you have to want to commit intentional time each and every morning/evening to playing and bonding with him for him to be fulfilled. Like most cats, Louie is most active in the early morning and late evening, and sleeps nicely most of the work day if played with properly. Due to his need for companionship, Louie would thrive in a home with another friendly cat or several, as he seems curious about and friendly towards our other cats. We haven’t introduced him to our dogs, but based on his temperament we believe he would do well with a respectful, cat-savvy pup. Due to his rough and tumble play style and tendency to play bite unpredictably, we would not recommend a home with small children or older children who are not familiar with cat behavior.
If you have any interest in doing a meet and greet with Louie, please submit an application and ask for “Louie”! We would love to have him in his forever home for the holidays.

Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal.
Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.
The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label.
