Matteo's Story

Hi, I'm Matteo! I'm a handsome guy with movie star good looks and an even better personality (if I do say so myself). I'm living in a foster home right now, and it turns out I'm pretty great at this whole "house cat" thing. I spend most of my days lounging by the window in my cat tower, supervising the yard and soaking up the sun. I love spring toys, anything made of cardboard, and honestly, if it's a scratcher, lounger, bed, or box-I'm in. I'm also known for my questionable but enthusiastic affection for water bottle straws. I'm proud to say I'm an FIP survivor, and I really do live life to the fullest. I'm told I do this very specific happy run when I'm excited, and it never fails to make my foster family smile. I'm a friendly, easygoing guy who gets along great with other cats and I even sleep next to my foster mom every night. I would love a forever home where I can keep being my affectionate, playful self. A cozy spot by a window is a must, bonus points for cardboard enrichment, and I'd be thrilled to have a human (or two!) who wants a loyal companion. I would love to live with another friendly cat too - zoomies are more fun with friends! If you're looking for a sweet, happy, low key guy with a big heart and an even bigger zest for life, I just might be your perfect match. I can't wait to meet my forever people. Love, Matteo
