I’m still a really, really good boy.<br/>I’m about 6 years old, which means I’ve outgrown the wild kitten chaos and settled into my best self. I’m sweet, gentle, and just happy to be safe again. I’m the kind of cat who will quietly keep you company, soak up your love, and remind you every day how special a second chance can be.<br/>I didn’t get the stability I deserved before… but I’m ready for it now.<br/>What I’m looking for is simple: A safe home. A kind human. A fresh start where I never have to wonder if I’ll be forgotten again.<br/>If you’ve got room in your heart for a cat who’s been through a lot—but still has so much love to give…<br/>I’ve been waiting for you. <br/>—Brooks <br/><br/>Brooks was previously neutered, and we updated his vaccinations, tested negative for FeLV and FIV, microchipped, dewormed, and received flea prevention. <br/><br/>Brooks is currently housed at our adoption center at PetSmart in Northeast Philadelphia (7422 Bustleton Avenue).<br/><br/>Ready to apply: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/OOTW/Cat

Hey… I’m Brooks.
I’ve been on quite the journey.

The rescue couldn't reach the owner listed on my microchip, but the emergency contact said my owner was irresponsible and had moved on from me...

I didn’t get the stability I deserved before… but I’m ready for it now.
