Why I need a new home

Found or abandoned

My story

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

Meet Smokey Joe, a 10-year-old black domestic shorthair who is looking for a calm, loving furever home. He's a sweet, gentle boy who tends to hide under the bed when things feel overwhelming. Although he has lived peacefully with small dogs, other cats, and a noisy bird, Smokey Joe truly thrives in a quiet, low-stress environment.

Smokey Joe's sister, Elsa - a 14-year-old tabby - would love to be adopted with him, but they understand if that isn't possible. Both cats have lived in the same home since they were kittens and recently experienced the loss of their human parents, so they've been shy and a bit traumatized and are longing for consistent companionship.

Elsa's Profile - https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/46501206-ponchatoula-louisiana-cat

They both have complete vet records, fully vaccinated as of September 2025, and no known medical issues.

If you can offer Smokey Joe a peaceful home where he can feel safe and loved again, please reach out - he's ready to belong to someone new.
