Snowshoe and Extra Toes Cat Hemingway Polydactyl Cats Available for Adoption in Ruskin, Florida

Rudy is a stunning, 1.5-year-old boy who is officially ready to trade the street life for the suite life! After a rough start, this brave survivor was rescued by Full of Cattitude, and he's been stealing hearts ever since.

A Rare Kind of Handsome

Rudy isn't just your average Snowshoe Siamese; he is a polydactyl (Hemingway) cat! That means he comes with extra toes—more of him to love and more "thumbs" for those famous Siamese antics. With his striking blue eyes and unique paws, he's truly one of a kind.

The Road to Recovery

Life on the streets wasn't kind to Rudy's health, but his spirit remained unbroken. He recently underwent a major dental procedure to address severe disease, leaving him with just his canines and incisors. The result? He feels like a brand-new cat!



Dining Habits: Rudy is a distinguished gentleman with a specific palate. He thrives on soft, wet food and has crowned Hills Science Diet Stews as his meal of choice.


Beauty in Progress: While his fur is currently a bit thin (potentially due to allergies), it's a work in progress. He's looking for a family ready to help him continue his glow-up with some extra TLC for his skin and coat.



Personality & Social Life

Rudy is the definition of "sweetness." He has deep blue eyes that look right into your soul and a personality that is pure gold. He has discovered the joy of play and is currently enjoying the company of the resident cats in his foster home.

As for dogs? He is still "undecided" but making progress. Rudy would likely prefer a very slow introduction to a canine companion or a feline-only household.

Is Rudy Your Match?

Rudy is looking for a patient, loving home that can provide the soft food he needs and the care his coat requires. In exchange, he promises endless head boops, gazes of gratitude, and a lifetime of companionship.
