Howie is available for adoption or foster-to-adopt, which allows you to bring him home on a trial basis before finalizing. Foster-to-adopt is limited to Rhode Island residents due to state regulations.
👨🍳 Meet Howie - an aspiring purrsonal chef in need of a loving home! 👨🍳
2-year-old Howie has surveillance ears that can detect food from a mile away. If you're cooking, he's involved. If you're eating, he's definitely involved. He's just trying to perfect his secret recipes, obviously.
Aside from his culinary ambitions, Howie loves hanging in his cat condo, bird-watching, and diving into playtime with his favorite toys. He's an outgoing, silly guy who thrives when his brain is busy, so think play sessions, food puzzles, and anything that keeps him engaged. Keep him entertained and you'll see his best (and funniest) self.
He's also your classic "dog-like" cat. He'll follow you from room to room, supervise your daily routine, and make sure nothing happens without his approval.
Because Howie is a high-energy boy (orange cat energy is real), he's needed a little extra support. He's currently on kitty Prozac to help him settle and succeed long-term. With the right home, he has so much potential to truly thrive.
Howie has also done well with mellow cats when given slow, proper introductions!
Howie is looking for:
* A home with older kids who understand his big personality
* Someone who appreciates a cat with energy, opinions, and a lot of love to give
* An adopter committed to giving him time to decompress and settle in successfully
In return, you'll get a lovable, hilarious best friend who will sit on your lap, enjoy a good brushing session, and slow blink his love at you in the cutest way possible 💛
Howie is a recipe for fun... he just needs a place to land.
Please apply to adopt Howie on our website to be considered for adoption or foster-to-adopt!

Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives! Apply here: https://tenlivescatrescue.org/adoptionapp/
Please Note:
If the cat or kitten is no longer listed in the drop-down menu of the application then they are no longer available for adoption and we are not accepting applications. Due to limited volunteer power, applications submitted for cats or kittens no longer available will not be reviewed.
About Ten Lives:
Ten Lives Cat Rescue is a 501(c)(3), nonprofit organization located in Rhode Island. Our foster-based program is 100% volunteer-powered. We do not have a facility or shelter with regular visiting hours. Out of respect for the time, privacy, and safety of our foster families, we require an approved adoption application before scheduling a meet and greet with a foster cat.
Our goal is to place cats in their best-matched homes and facilitate lifelong adoptions. We do not review applications on a first-come, first-serve basis. We believe that veterinary care is an important part of cat guardianship. As such, a veterinary check is part of our adoption process. Our goal is to contact applicants within 96 business hours of receiving their application. During kitten season, wait times may be longer due to the influx of applications. We are all volunteers and kindly ask for your patience!
All Ten Lives cats are spayed or neutered, receive age-appropriate vaccinations, tested for FIV/FeLv and parasites, dewormed, treated for fleas, and microchipped. These services are inclusive of the adoption fee.
