My story

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

Hi, I’m Geppetto

Not long ago, I was sitting on the side of the road when a kind lady came up to me and started talking—she even meowed like she was one of my kind! I knew right away she was safe, so I walked over and gave her all the love I had. I wanted to follow her home, but the cars scared me. She didn’t forget about me though—she came back the very next day and brought me into a warm house with food, water, and so much affection.

I am a total love bug. I adore being held and hugged, and I’ll happily rub my face all over yours while purring and making biscuits at the same time. My paws are almost always kneading when I’m being loved—it’s how I show just how happy I am. I’ll sleep in bed with you too, cuddled up next to you, on you, or tucked right near your head.

Sometimes I get so relaxed and content that I drool a little while purring up a storm—what can I say, I feel things deeply! My biscuit-making claws can get a bit enthusiastic, but a simple nail trim keeps everything comfy.

I don’t seem to mind calm, big dogs, and I love kids who want to shower me with affection. I’m litter box trained, fearless, and easygoing. I’ve only been in my foster home for a short time, so I’m still letting my full personality shine—but make no mistake, I have so much love to give.

My adoption fee includes up-to-date vaccinations, dewormer, and heartworm/flea prevention. Plus, a microchip that is already registered to you! What more could you ask for?

If you`d like to meet me, please fill out an application on our website, PawmettoLifeline.org.
