Beetle is a handsome orange tabby boy born on 10/21/25, with a warm, sun-kissed coat patterned in classic tabby swirls and bright, expressive eyes full of curiosity. His soft fur and sturdy little frame make him as huggable as he is adorable. Whether he’s perched up high surveying his kingdom or stretched out in a cozy nap spot, Beetle’s golden coloring and sweet face are sure to steal hearts instantly.

Beetle got a second chance at life alongside his brother when NAWS saved him from the euthanasia list. Now he’s ready for his fresh start with a family who will cherish him forever. He’s a true purring machine who turns on the motor the moment you give him attention. Playful and full of kitten energy, Beetle would absolutely love a feline friend to wrestle and romp with. After playtime, he’s more than happy to soak up affection and remind you just how grateful he is for his new beginning. This is your chance to step up and give Beetle the wonderful life he deserves.
