Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Tahlequah, Oklahoma

Meet Mel! 🐾

Mel is the total package—the perfect mix of playful fun and affectionate charm! Whether you’re a first-time cat owner, a longtime cat lover, or already have a house full of feline friends, Mel could fit right in just about anywhere.

This handsome guy loves to play and is always ready for action, especially when it comes to small toys to swat, long rope toys to chase, and laser lights to hunt down. He knows how to keep himself entertained—and you too!

Don’t let Mel’s adorable rgf (resting grump face) fool you. Beneath that serious expression is a total sweetheart. The moment you reach out to pet him, his jet engine purr kicks on instantly! And if you dare stop petting him too soon, Mel will happily follow you around asking for more attention.

One more charming warning: Mel is such a happy guy when he’s getting love that the drool starts flowing! That’s right—this affectionate boy wears his heart on his sleeve (and sometimes on your lap).

If you’re looking for a fun, loving, and hilariously charming companion, Mel is ready to bring purrs, playtime, and plenty of love into your home! 🐱💛

If interested in adopting Mel, head to our website www.humanecherokeecounty.org, click on adoption, and fill out an application. A volunteer will reach out to you once they have received a completed form.
