Rocky Balboa's Story

Hi! My name is Rocky Balboa and here is a bit more about me : <br/><br/>My Journey<br/>I’m a buff-and-handsome orange boy who spent at least a year living on the streets of National City without a family to call my own. A kind Smittens volunteer rescued me and gave me the chance to finally experience safety, comfort, and love. I’m still getting used to indoor life, but I’m embracing it more every day—and I’m very ready for my forever home.<br/><br/>My Social Life<br/>Other cats ? Dogs ? I get along well with other cats and could potentially live with a cat-friendly dog with a slow, thoughtful introduction. I may need a little time to settle into new surroundings, but once I do, I truly enjoy companionship and being part of a home.<br/><br/>My Personality<br/>Affectionate and loyal<br/>Gentle and easygoing<br/>A true cuddle enthusiast<br/>I’m the kind of cat who bonds deeply with my people and shows my love by sticking close—especially at bedtime.<br/><br/>I Enjoy...<br/>Lounging in the sunshine after breakfast<br/>Playing with my spring toys<br/>Cuddling all night long to keep you warm<br/>Waiting patiently (and eagerly) for breakfast in the morning<br/>(Yes, breakfast is very important to me.)<br/><br/>I’m Not a Fan Of...<br/>Big changes can take me a little time to adjust to, so patience and a calm introduction to new spaces help me feel safe and confident.<br/><br/>What Makes Me Special<br/>I love with my whole heart. Once you’re my person, I’m yours forever. I’m affectionate, devoted, and happiest when I’m close to my humans—especially during cuddle time and mealtime.<br/>Also... just look at my eyes!<br/><br/>My Perfect Home<br/>I’d thrive in a loving home that understands I may need a short adjustment period but is rewarded with endless affection in return. A home with other friendly pets is possible, especially with slow introductions, and humans who appreciate a cuddly, food-motivated orange gentleman would be my dream come true.<br/>If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will greet every day with love—and enthusiasm for breakfast—I might be the perfect match for you
