Walter - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Fremont, California

Walter had a rough start to life. He was found hiding in a car engine, where he was squirted with a hose and then chased around a garage until he was finally caught. You might expect a kitten who experienced all that to be frightened or wary of people—but Walter has decided that humans are pretty wonderful after all!

The moment you pet him, Walter starts to purr. He loves giving and receiving kisses, enjoys belly rubs, and is an incredibly cuddly little guy. Unlike many kittens, Walter actually loves being held and will happily curl up next to you for a cozy nap if given the chance.

Of course, Walter is still a kitten, so playtime is a must! He loves anything that moves, but wand toys and chasing balls are definitely among his favorites. After he’s finished showing off his playful side, he’s more than happy to settle in for some serious snuggle time.

Walter has been through a lot, but none of it has taken away his trust, sweetness, or loving spirit. He’s the kind of kitten who will quickly steal your heart—and before you know it, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without him.

We think you’ll be completely smitten with Walter!
