Handstand - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Morgantown, West Virginia

Handstand and his siblings were found abandoned under a dumpster when they were just tiny babies. It's taken this little guy some time to figure out that indoor life is pretty wonderful and that not all humans are going to let him down. And honestly, who can blame him for needing a little reassurance?

But now that he's getting the hang of this whole being a spoiled house cat thing, Handstand is showing off his true colors — and BOY, does he have energy to burn! This playful little dude loves his toys and is perfectly happy entertaining himself, so he doesn't necessarily need another furry friend to keep him busy. He'd do well in a home with other cats or dogs, or as your one-and-only feline sidekick!

Handstand is an independent little soul who marches to the beat of his own drum. He's not the type to rush into a relationship (he likes to keep his options open, you know!), so he may need a little time to decide you're worthy of his affection. But once you've earned his trust? Get ready for the sweetest, most loving side of this boy to shine!

He's still learning that the world can be a safe and wonderful place, and we'd love to find him a family willing to let him blossom at his own pace. Could you be the person who shows Handstand that he's finally home?

Handstand is estimated to have been born June 1, 2026.
