Gelato's Story

**Please fill out an application per instructions below NOT a Petfinder Inquiry if you want more information**<br/><br/>Gelato! <br/><br/>Meet this sweet and shy tux. Gelato is a former street cat that yearns for a safer life as he visited my house cats and made friends with them through the catio. <br/><br/>He now yearns for a loving family of his own. He may take some time to build trust. He has the cutest, raspy street cat meow that served him well once but it is all for show as he is gentle natured and gets along great with easy going kitties and kiddos as well. He sticks to himself mostly but may continue to open up in an indoor home with a loving, accepting household. <br/><br/>He is already learning how to play with cat toys and readily accepts petting from me with a zest that makes you want to give him everything he was always missing. He is a quiet soul that enjoys napping in cozy spots around the house. He is a top tier observer and will blossom to an affectionate companion with patience.<br/><br/>Please head to our website to fill out a free application to learn more about this cat and to start the adoption process. Once your adoption application is approved we will contact you to set up a meeting. http://nwac-oregon.org/adoption-application/ Petfinder inquiries are not monitored on a regular basis. <br/><br/>The $175 adoption fee Includes spay/neuter, microchip, worming and flea treatment, current vaccines for their age, and a vet exam. Negative test for FIV and FeLV.<br/><br/>Northwest Animal Companions is an all-volunteer, non-profit foster-home based rescue. 100% of your adoption fee goes to provide for the medical and physical needs of the pets in our care.
