Tootsie

My story

DOB: June 3, 2021 Meet Tootsie, a handsome little gentleman who’s ready to bring love and joy into his forever home. Tootsie has a gentle, thoughtful nature—you’ll notice it in the mornings, when he patiently waits until you’re truly awake before greeting you. He’ll also melt your heart with his quirky precision, like the way he sits exactly between you and your partner, as though he calculated the perfect spot. Unlike the stereotype of cats doing whatever they please, Tootsie is delightfully reliable. Buy him a cozy cushion? That’s where he’ll sleep. Provide a scratching post? That’s where he’ll sharpen his claws (your couch will thank you!). A bowl of wet food? Gone in no time. A toy waved in front of him? He’ll chase it with all his heart. And then there are the eyes. When Tootsie locks his gaze on you, be prepared—it feels like he’s looking right into your soul. He’s full of endearing quirks too. His “silent meows” are irresistibly cute, as if he’s politely whispering instead of speaking out loud. His soft gray coat is the exact shade of a cartoon donkey, and he loves to bask on the balcony or play with elastic bands. Tootsie is also a resilient boy. He previously had Feline Urinary Tract Disease (FLUTD), but with excellent care he has fully healed. He’s now thriving on a special urinary diet, happily drinking from his water fountain and enjoying his wet food mix. If you’re looking for a first cat—or simply a loving, affectionate companion who’s gentle, playful, and easy to care for—Tootsie is your boy.
