My name is Atticus (but my nickname is Kips) and I am a handsome orange American long hair male. I weigh 7 lbs 4 oz and I’m 11 ½ years old. After spending over 11 good years indoors with my human mom, she got sick and can no longer take care of me. I love my foster mom, but there were already 4 cats in her house when she rescued me, and they are all very territorial and don’t like me very much. My original mom had another cat (Harper) and a Dalmatian, and we got along prety well. At this point I might like to live out my senior years as an only, indoor cat, but my younger roommate Harper also needs a new forever home, so I could go either way.I am caught up on all my vaccinations and was neutered long ago. I’m thin, so my foster mom asked the vet to run additional tests (a “senior panel” and some others) and no problems were found. I love to cuddle with my foster mom, especially at night when she lets me sleep on her chest or snuggle next to her. But I really need my own new house where I can explore and hang out more with humans. Right now I’m living in a bedroom with Harper so we don’t get into trouble or danger with the other cats.
