Ralf - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Waltham, Massachusetts

Meet Ralf, a cute and charming 11-month-old kitty who has journeyed all the way from Qatar in search of his forever family!

When it comes to his fellow felines, Ralf is a total social butterfly. He loves playing, chasing, and jumping around with other cats and is happiest when he has kitty friends to keep him company. He takes a little longer to warm up to humans, but with time, patience, and a little encouragement, we’re confident he’ll reveal his sweet side.

Ralf has already been through a lot in his young life. A virus resulted in a couple of teeth being extracted and left a small scar on his lower jaw. He also suffered a fractured shoulder that was repaired with a plate. Despite these challenges, Ralf has healed beautifully and is back to doing what he loves most: playing with his feline friends!

If you’re a patient adopter with a kitty who could use a friend, Ralf may be the purrfect pal to add to your family!

Kittens are adorable, but older cats can be wonderful pets as well and they tend to be overlooked, so please consider adopting an adult cat or two!
