Sweetums - Domestic Short Hair Cat Available for Adoption in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Sweetums is a handsome black and white cat who is looking for a peaceful home where he can truly relax and focus on enjoying the good life. While he is currently a little shy in the shelter environment, he is a wonderfully affectionate and friendly boy once he feels safe and settled.

We'd describe Sweetums as a medium energy level kitty, balancing a love for playtime with a desire to just hang out and accompany his people! Sweetums is remarkably sweet and has a history of being affectionate toward both strangers and children. He loves using his scratching toys and thrives on companionship, making him an ideal match for a household that already has one or two other chill cats to keep him company.

To help Sweetums live his absolute best life, his future family will need to help him with a couple of health goals. He will require some dental work to get his mouth feeling tip-top, and he is also looking for a partner to help him work on losing some weight so he can stay active and healthy for years to come.
If you have a calm home and a heart big enough to help this gentle, handsome boy decompress and reach his health goals, Sweetums will reward you with endless affection and loyalty.
