Vision is estimated to be about 2 to 3 years old as of April, 2026. He showed up at one of our volunteers homes and was fed and transported for TNR. He was picked up by an open intake organization within a week of his release from being neutered and vaccinated and, for his safety, brought into rescue. He is the sweetest boy....and so handsome too! He loves nothing more than being petted and receiving belly rubs EXCEPT when is getting all that while sitting in a lap! He gets so excited when being held, that he drools and he can't control that reaction to his pure happiness! Vision will be a great addition to any home that can be patient with him as he transition to his new environment and properly introduce him to other pets. He loves the other cats in rescue, playing with them through his confinement space. We do not know if he has been around dogs. He is an easy going, relaxed guy after he is not scared and trusts. Vision is ready for a FOREVER home that will provide him the love and attention he needs! Adopt him today.
