Clayton is an adorable 3-year old male Tuxedo kitty who was brought to the HSOV on January 8, 2026 by a Good Samaritan who found him on Fourth Street in Beverly Ohio. Clayton had appeared at that family's home about six-weeks earlier, and they tried in vain to locate his family before bringing him to the safety of our shelter.
This beautiful boy has a gray-and-white short smooth coat in a tuxedo pattern, a long tail, and a symmetrically-marked gray/white face with golden eyes, a cute pink nose, and long white whiskers.
Clayton has a super sweet disposition and a calm, easygoing personality. He was quite content to continue with his afternoon snack when we opened the door to his cage in The Jungle Room, and he posed for impromptu photos like a "pro".
Clayton was given vaccinations and Drontal wormer on January 15, 2026. He weighed 7.3 lbs that day.
Clayton has already been neutered.
If he is not reclaimed, we will find Clayton another loving home.
