Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption

Goose – The Calm, Cuddly Gentleman Looking for His Person

Goose is a sweet, affectionate boy who melts for attention and bonds deeply with his people. He’s the kind of kitty who leans into your hand, follows you for pets, and settles in close the moment you sit down.

Even at the vet, Goose stays calm, gentle, and full of love — he’s truly an old soul wrapped in soft tabby stripes.

Goose enjoys the company of other cats, but he doesn’t rely on them for comfort. His heart belongs to his humans, and he’ll thrive either as your one‑and‑only or with a friendly feline buddy. He hasn’t been exposed to dogs yet, so a slow, thoughtful introduction would be important if you have a calm pup at home.
Goose is ready for a cozy, loving home where he can be someone’s loyal shadow, cuddle partner, and daily dose of sweetness.
