My story

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

MEET HOBBS!

This striking orange-and-white Turkish Van is just beginning to discover the finer things in life — like cozy naps, gentle play, and what it feels like to truly be safe. He was originally cared for by a kind community member who made sure he was fed, but couldn’t provide medical care. Since then, he’s been fully vetted, neutered, and is feeling so much better — and it shows.

With his adorable, slightly stocky build and soulful eyes, this sweet boy has quietly stolen the hearts of everyone who’s gotten to know him. Now that he’s neutered, he’s much happier and has discovered how fun feline friendship can be! He genuinely enjoys the company of other cats and would thrive with a young, playful cat friend, following a proper and patient introduction.

He’s still learning that humans can be trusted, so he’ll need a calm, adult-only home with someone kind, patient, and willing to let him move at his own pace. In return, you’ll get the joy of watching a once-overlooked kitty blossom into the confident, affectionate companion he’s meant to be.

If you believe love, patience, and consistency can change a life — this handsome boy is waiting just for you. 🧡🐾
