Canelo is a 1-year-old tabby with golden eyes, the softest fur, and a heart as warm as his name. This charming boy has won over everyone he’s met with his calm, affectionate personality and just the right touch of sass. Once a shy kitty unsure of people, Canelo has blossomed in his foster home and is now ready to find a forever family to call his own!

 

✨ Why Canelo Might Be Your Perfect Match:

 

• Affectionate & Independent: Canelo is the best of both worlds — he loves cuddles (especially in the morning!) but is also happy to entertain himself with toys or nap in a sunny window.

• Cat-Friendly: He’s lived with another cat before and did great, but he’s also perfectly content being the only feline king of the castle.

• Kid-Friendly: Canelo has been around children ages 5+ and does well with gentle, respectful kids.

• Dog Compatibility: He hasn’t lived with dogs yet, but his foster is happy to help test him with pups for serious adopters.

• Home Ready: Canelo is fully vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and litter box trained. He’s also a gentleman with furniture — he only scratches his designated toys and posts!

 

🧡 From His Foster Mom:
“Canelo is such an easy companion. He’s mellow, well-mannered, and has this sweet little routine — playtime, snacks, then lounging in the sun. He’s not demanding but always nearby, keeping you company. He’s the kind of cat who makes a house feel like home.”

 

📍 Canelo is currently being fostered in Houston, TX and is ready to meet his forever family!
