Scout - Domestic Short Hair Cat Available for Adoption in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Is a 15 pound cat too big to sit in your lap? Scout certainly doesn't think so!

Scout is the kind of cat who makes his presence known immediately, usually by asking for pets, attention, and as much closeness as possible. Scout absolutely loves his people and wants to be involved in every part of their day, whether that means curling up beside you, rubbing against your legs for attention, or staring at you expectantly until you give him the pets he believes he deserves. He has a big personality, a lot of charm, and an endless supply of love to give.

Scout shares a close bond with his best friend Harper, and the two are looking for a home together. While Harper is the calm and steady half of the pair, Scout brings a little extra spark and personality that makes them such a fun duo. He's social, expressive, and full of charm, with a presence that keeps life entertaining and full of affection.

Because Scout becomes so enthusiastic about attention, he can sometimes get overstimulated during petting and may nip or grab at the hand petting him. He's looking for a patient, cat-savvy home with someone who understands feline body language and can recognize when he needs a short break to reset. With the right person, Scout's quirks are easy to manage and are simply part of what makes him unique.

Scout has so much love to give and will thrive in a home that appreciates his affectionate, spirited personality while respecting his boundaries. Together, Scout and Harper make a deeply bonded pair full of companionship, comfort, and character.

Scout would likely do well in a home with older or cat savvy kids. We haven't had a chance to observe him around dogs, but a chill, older dog companion would probably be ok too.

Scout is approximately three years old. He is up-to-date on vaccines, exams, FIV/FeLV tested (negative), flea treated, dewormed, neutered, and microchipped.
