Diomedes - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Kansas City, Missouri

Diomedes is a sweet orange boy with a gentle heart and so much love to give. He can be quite skittish when he first meets new people, but with patience, consistency, and plenty of positive attention, he slowly comes out of his shell and becomes such a lover - with an adorably loud purr machine!

Diomedes is an active and playful kitten who loves toys, especially anything that gives him an opportunity to pounce, chase, or climb. He has experience living around his foster family's cats and would likely do well with another cat in his forever home. In fact, he would love to be adopted with one of his siblings, Dido, Atlas, Romulus, or Seraphina. He would also do wonderfully with a confident resident cat who can help show him the ropes and give him some extra confidence.

He has not yet been around dogs, but he may do well with a dog given slow, proper introductions and time to adjust. While he has not had experience with children, he would likely be comfortable with respectful children who understand that Diomedes needs to approach new people on his own terms.

Diomedes uses his litter box reliably and eats dry food, with the occasional wet food treat. He would be a wonderful addition to just about any home, as long as his adopter is willing to give him the patience and consistency he needs to feel safe. Give this handsome boy a little time, shower him with love, and you'll discover just how much affection he has to give.
