Steve-o - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Fairfax, Virginia

Steve-o is a senior, white and brown tabby cat with a gentle spirit and a sweet, soft presence. Steve-o has tested positive for FIV, meaning that he will need to see his veterinarian a little more frequently than your average cat, but it doesn't slow him down.

He’s looking for a mellow, loving home where he can relax, feel safe, and enjoy his golden years at his own pace. With his calm demeanor and kind nature, Steve-o is the sort of companion who’s happiest just quietly sharing space with his favorite people.

He previously lived with many other cats and may enjoy feline companionship again, given a slow and thoughtful introduction.

If you have room in your heart and home for a tender-hearted senior who just wants to be loved, Steve-o would be grateful to meet you.
