Rome's Story

MEET ROME — ROBUST, RIDICULOUS & READY FOR HIS TURN! <br/><br/>Rome’s brothers, Rio and Dublin, have packed their tiny bags and been adopted, leaving Rome to ask the obvious question:<br/><br/>“Hello?? Have you SEEN me?” <br/><br/>Rome is around 4 months old and is one big, beautiful baby house panther. He was the largest of his litter and has a solid build, a sleek black coat and a secret set of tabby stripes that appear when the lighting is just right. Very mysterious. Very majestic. Very fancy.<br/><br/>At least until he opens his mouth.<br/><br/>Because somehow this substantial little specimen produces the tiniest, sweetest meow imaginable. Big boy. Baby squeak. Absolutely no explanation.<br/><br/>Rome is confident, curious, cuddly and charming. Pick him up and his purr motor starts almost immediately. He loves being held, getting pets and soaking up human attention — but he also believes affection should occasionally come as a surprise.<br/><br/>Every so often, Rome will stroll over, give you a few quick little licks and then casually walk away like nothing happened.<br/><br/>Consider yourself kissed. Rome has places to be. <br/><br/>When he’s not collecting cuddles or delivering drive-by kisses, Rome is a fearless little feline investigator. Wand toys must be whacked. Crinkle toys must be crunched. Treats must be thoroughly taste-tested. And any unexplored corner? <br/><br/>Clearly Rome has been assigned to the case.<br/><br/>Rome was often the bold boss of the brother brigade, leading Rio and Dublin into their kitten adventures. But don’t mistake “leader” for “serious.” This boy has been caught doing some spectacularly silly stuff. Apparently maintaining your dignity is difficult when you’re four months old and easily distracted by something that crinkles.<br/><br/>Rome gets along well with other cats, enjoys playing with children and would thrive with people who want an affectionate, interactive kitten who likes being right in the middle of the action. He hasn’t lived directly with dogs, but he has encountered them at events and didn’t seem particularly bothered by their presence.<br/><br/>Rome has received age-appropriate vaccines and has been treated with topical flea control and dewormer.<br/><br/>Rome is a Foster to Adopt kitty, which simply means he hasn’t been neutered yet. He can still go home with his adopter and start settling in while he waits for his neuter appointment. Once he’s neutered, the adoption will be finalized.<br/><br/>Rome needs a home with another friendly cat or kitten to provide the feline friendship, wrestling practice and important social interaction a young kitten needs.<br/><br/>Rio? Adopted.<br/>Dublin? Adopted.<br/>Rome?<br/><br/>Still here. Still ridiculously handsome. Still handing out surprise kisses. Still wondering what the holdup is. <br/><br/>To meet Rome, please submit an adoption application.<br/><br/>Directions to Cat by Cats Application Form:<br/>-Scroll down and click on the Visit Our Profile Page button<br/>-Click on Adoption Application <br/>-Complete the inquiry for Cat by Cat Inc. on Jotform <br/>-Once completed, the form will automatically go to Cat by Cat Inc. and you will receive a confirmation screen<br/>-An adoption specialist will review the completed form and then reach out to you. <br/><br/>We appreciate your patience as we get back to you, we are an all-volunteer organization.
