Rocket's Story

For over a month, this sweet boy quietly visited our home every single day. No matter the weather, he would patiently wait on our patio—even sitting through storms—hoping for a safe place to rest and a meal to fill his belly. Every time I tried to approach him, he ran in fear. He was trapped on the 4th of July, and we assumed he was feral but we were very wrong. <br/><br/>Since coming indoors, he has shown us who he truly is, and he is nothing short of incredible.<br/><br/>He is a world-class cuddler who purrs almost nonstop. Even with new people, he is nervous briefly before coming right up for attention. He was scared at first meeting my husband, but was purring laying next to him within 5 minutes. If you are sitting down, he will happily curl up in your lap. If you are relaxing on the couch, he will be right beside you. His favorite thing in the world is simply being close to his people.<br/><br/>After spending so much time outside, he seems genuinely grateful for the comfort and safety of a home. Soft beds, regular meals, and knowing he is finally safe are things he never takes for granted.<br/><br/>He has done great with our dog (booped noses and laid next to her shortly after meeting her) and has also been patient with our energetic, loud toddler. He seemed nervous at first but willing to take love from our toddler when he is being gentle and not running towards him. While the little one runs, plays, and makes plenty of noise, this sweet boy watches and lays down nearby to observe.<br/><br/>This handsome boy has so much love to give. After sitting alone through storms and uncertainty, he deserves a family who will never let him wonder where hell sleep again. If you are looking for a loyal companion, a professional lap cat, and a best friend who will greet you with endless purrs, he just might be the perfect match.<br/><br/>He spent weeks waiting on our patio, hoping someone would give him a chance. Now he is waiting for the family who will love him forever and he will love even more.<br/><br/>Est. DOB July 2025, he is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for FIV and FeLV. <br/><br/>Please note that the Misfit Felines policy requires that young kittens will either need a sibling to go home with or there must be another playful/young feline already in the home.<br/><br/>Adopters will also receive an adoption package of goodies valued at around $100 if you visit one or both of our pet store partners after adoption (Tabby & Jacks and/or All Paws). <br/><br/>Misfit Felines Inc is a foster based 501(c)3 rescue. All of our cats are in foster homes. The first step in the adoption process is to submit an application. <br/><br/>Apply: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/MFR/Cat
