Tom - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Providence, Rhode Island

Meet Tom

Tom is the kind of cat that makes people say, "I can't believe he's still here."

This orange and white sweetheart is an 8-year-old professional cuddle buddy, expert napper, and certified velcro cat. If you're looking for a cat who wants to be involved in everything you do, Tom is ready to apply for the position. Watching TV? Tom's there. Reading a book? Tom's there. Taking a nap? Tom was already there first.

A longtime staff favorite, Tom has won over just about everyone he's met with his lovable personality and endless affection. He loves cozy beds, chin scratches, and would happily spend hours perched in a tall cat tower keeping an eye on the neighborhood.

Tom is FIV+, but he's thriving and feeling great. He's received lots of TLC while in our care, including some much-needed dental work, and is feeling better than ever. Now he's ready to leave shelter life behind and find a home where he can spend his days being spoiled the way he deserves.

The best way to describe Tom? Easy. He's all the best parts of cat ownership wrapped up into one handsome orange package. Sweet, laid-back, affectionate, and always ready to spend time with his favorite people.
