Aries Domestic Short Hair Warwick, RI

Have you been looking for a sign you found the purrfect kitty to be a part of your family? Look no further - meet Aries - a little over 1 and a half years old but still full of kitten energy! He has a sleek black coat, a distinguished white patch on his chest, and tiny fluffs of white fur in his ears. Each day begins a new adventure for Aries - finding a box to hide in, exploring cabinets, playing with his sheltermates, scouting out the perfect nook to nap in, or burying all the toys in his bed. Aries is a curious and mellow fellow. He is shy upon first meet and greet, but give him time to trust you and his new surroundings, and he will be nudging your hands and circling your ankles in no time! He enjoys the simple pleasures in life - wand toys, bouncy balls, a window with a view, and a sunny spot. He adores being in the company of other cats, and we ask for another friendly cat in the home for Aries or that he be adopted with one of his siblings. We are unsure how he would be in a home with dogs. Aries was found outside, along with his mama and other siblings. He has been hanging out at Scruffy for quite some time, and as much as we all love having him, it is time for this boy to find his forever family!
