Tom Sawyer: September 4, Rescue day–belly up on a lap!

Tom and his friend Becky Thatcher (also available) have an affinity for gazing out of windows together. Tom and Becky are not just cat-friendly; they are also dog-friendly. They have already shown ease when introduced to other furry canine companions.

Tom was rescued from an isolated local library, with a small cat community. He was friendly right from the start, and we learned quickly he is super loving and affectionate. We also learned that he doesn’t like cage time! We estimate he was born in mid-May, 2023. He has been neutered, microchipped, and given age-appropriate vaccines. He tested negative for FeLV and FIV.

In the story of your life, Tom Sawyer (and maybe Becky Thatcher too?) is ready to be the unforgettable character that fills your days with joy, love, and adventure. If you’re looking for an affectionate, sweet, and bold feline friend who loves to explore the world, Tom Sawyer might just be the perfect addition to your Forever Family.
