Storm - Russian Blue and Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Fairfax, Virginia

Are you hoping to meet the. nicest. cat? Then come meet Storm! Storm is an older gentleman who wants nothing but a loving home full of cuddles. When you meet him, Storm will come right up and get to know you, and as soon as you pet him he offers enthusiastic purrs. Storm snuggles close when you hold him in your arms and will head-bump your face for loving when he’s on the floor. Though he’s a relatively young senior, Storm has some health concerns that mean he’ll need an adopter who can offer a little extra TLC, including a strict specialized diet and daily medication to manage his GI health, as well as routine veterinary visits to keep him in tiptop shape. If your home sounds like a great fit for Storm, come and get to know him!
