Gordo is part of our Lizzie McGuire litter, and is the only boy surrounded by 4 tortoiseshell sisters! I'm sure his sisters' "tortie-tude" helped make him the patient and sweet boy he is today. Gordo is extremely well-mannered and gentle. He loves to be around people and other kittens, but isn't the type to be pushy - he waits his turn for things patiently.
The only thing that Gordo just can't be patient for is his daily Churu treat! He absolutely loves Churu and becomes very vocal when the packet comes out... It's adorable. Even as he mews his tiny little head off, he stays polite and stares up at you without scaling your body like a mountain. He gently holds his treat with both paws and is just the sweetest little thing.
Gordo is affectionately nicknamed "Toofy" because of the tiny white line on the right hand side of his chin - it looks like a little tooth. Between that quirk, his mittens, magnificent whiskers, and bright green eyes, he is an absolute stunner!
Gordo loves spending time with his foster siblings Elle Fanning, Sophie Turner, and Boogie - he would do great if adopted with one of them, or any other friendly kitten he could cause mischief with.
Priority will be given to applicants interested in adopting a pair of kittens or who have patient, playful resident cats or dogs at home. Gordo has not met a dog before, but with slow and careful introductions to a well-behaved dog we think he would do great with a new pup sibling. He does have a gentle nature, so ideally any dogs in the home would be very sweet and calm :) Information on why adopting two kittens is better for their short- and long-term health can be found here:

Adopt Gordo and maybe one of his adorable buddies, and double the love, double the purrs, and double the fun!

Gordo is ~5 months old, microchipped, neutered, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. He is in excellent health and ready to bring a lot of love to his new home!

ABOUT OUR ADOPTION FEES:
When you adopt from ROSES Rescues, you're doing more than giving your new family member a home. Each adoption fee pays for a cat on the streets of Houston to get fixed, helping end the cycle of overpopulation in a rough environment. We thank you so much for your contribution to our efforts! To learn more about our TNR (Trap / Neuter / Return) efforts, please follows us on Instagram @roses_rescues_htx.
(All adoption fees also include transportation costs, spay/neuter of the animal, vaccinations, and microchipping.)
Meet Gordo, a handsome little man who is dressed in his best tuxedo and looking for his forever home!
