My name is Tenderloin!

Hi there, I’m Tenderloin! I’m a young adult kitty, just under 10 pounds, with handsome tabby stripes and gorgeous green eyes. I’m playful, curious, and I absolutely love attention. If you’re offering pets, I’ll be right there soaking them up, I’m always happy to be admired and loved.
I enjoy meeting new people and like to see what everyone is up to. Whether I’m exploring my surroundings, playing, or hanging out nearby, I love being part of the action. I’m the kind of kitty who wants to be involved in daily life and share lots of affection with my humans.
I do want to be upfront about something important about me. I tested positive for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV). It’s a slow-acting virus that affects a cat’s immune system, but with proper veterinary care, a safe indoor lifestyle, and monitoring for secondary infections, cats like me can live long, happy, and very normal lives. FIV is primarily spread through deep bite wounds, so peaceful homes are best for me.
What I’m really hoping for is a loving family who will see me for who I am, a sweet, playful, affectionate boy ready to give my whole heart. I’m ready to go home and start my next chapter with someone special. Maybe that someone is you.
