He is a gentle 13-year-old cat ready for a new forever home. Sadly, Eli's home circumstances are about to change, and he needs a kind new human to love and care for him.
Eli’s a sweet, gentle boy who enjoys being cozy indoors but also loves to be outside when the weather is nice. He’d be a wonderful companion, especially for someone living alone. He would be best suited to a child- and pet-free home (just Eli!).
He’s in good health for his age, and we’re hoping to find his new home soon. Call me if you'd like to meet this special fellow and maybe have him as your new forever bestie!
