Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption

Meet Joe Dirt — the king of charm and a little bit of sass!

If you’re looking for a cat with personality, heart, and a story to tell… Joe Dirt is your guy.

Joe Dirt is a handsome 3-year-old short-haired black and white boy who was rescued from a feral colony—but it didn’t take long to realize he was far too sweet for life on the streets. His name comes from the little white paws that were once stained from dirt… now cleaned up and ready for his forever home!

This lovable boy is:
• Friendly and affectionate
• A constant purr machine
• Playful, curious, and full of life
• A big fan of chin scratches and lickable treats

Joe Dirt has a hilarious and endearing quirk—he loves to flop over and show you his belly… but don’t fall for it! It’s a trap (a cute one, though). And because he has no front teeth, his tongue often sticks out when he’s relaxed and happy—making him even more irresistibly adorable.

He is fully vetted and ready to go home:
• Neutered
• Microchipped
• Current on age-appropriate vaccines
• FeLV/FIV negative

Adoption Fee: $180
