Mango's Story

Mango's Personality<br/><br/>DOB: 1/1/26<br/><br/>Note: Mango NEEDS a young, playful MALE cat buddy in his forever home.<br/><br/>Mango is a very handsome orange and white tabby with big green eyes. He is a social and playful guy who loves being around people. Mango trots over to greet everyone who comes his way, stranger or not. He settles in for a nap on a warm lap (or chest if you’re horizontal) once he's done playing or exploring. He likes being carried around for short periods of time and is quick to purr.<br/><br/>Mango enjoys being petted, but like many cats, lets you know when he has had enough. The same goes with playing. He chases a mouse on a string, bats a ball around the floor, or plays with interactive toys for a while, but then walks away like he has better things to do! Mango can get a little over stimulated when petting or when you walk by - he may grab your leg. This tells us he needs plenty of interaction - activity around him, toys to play with and a kitty friend.<br/><br/>Mango loves his cat tree and spends hours on the top perch napping or looking out the window. He also loves running water and likes to stand outside the bathroom to let you know he wants in - so he can jump up on the counter and drink while not caring that he is immersing his head in the water getting soaking wet!<br/><br/>What Type of Home Mango Needs<br/><br/>Mango needs a home with multiple people who are available to hang out with him. He is not demanding, but likes to be near people. Like most young male cats, Mango needs a like-minded male kitty to bond and play with. Mango sometimes nips or grabs your hands to let you know he has had enough petting or playing or tries to get your attention. This behavior will subside once he has a cat buddy to occupy his time. He may do ok with an older cat-savvy child (over about 12 years of age) as long as he also has a cat buddy to play with. No young children now or in the future.<br/><br/>Where Mango Came From<br/><br/>Mango was a stray kitty who was trying to get inside an office building when a kind woman encountered him outdoors. Of course, this kitty - only about 6 months old at the time - had no business being outdoors. She brought him indoors for safekeeping and when nobody claimed him, he was transferred to SPCA's care.PLEASE NOTE: we only adopt to residents of the DC metro area, which includes DC, Prince Georges and Montgomery Counties in MD, and Arlington, Fairfax, Prince William, and Loudoun Counties in VA.<br/><br/>Please see our adoption guidelines at https://spcanova.org/about-us/adoption-policies/.
