Orion is a 6 month old orange, male cat who has the most beautiful rescue, love-story!

He was a tiny member of a colony of cats that were a TNR project who could not be safely returned to their original location. Even though he was unused to humans he was placed in a foster home in hopes that he would grow to trust and make a good house-cat one day.

He came to us with one of his colony-mates, Umbra . As he grew to trust humans, he also grew sweet and curious ! He’s clever and playful now, even though his most active times are at dawn and dusk. He prefers to nap the day away in his favorite hideouts and zoom and wrestle into the night. He loves wet food at breakfast, both creamy and crunchy treats and playing with feet. He will rub against your legs when he wants attention.

Because of his isolated origins I don’t recommend a family with children who expect to carry a pet around in their arms even though he can be cuddly. He is not used to being grabbed. He gets along well with other cats, especially his colony mate Umbra. I’ve never seen him fight.
I have never seen him interact with a dog.

He will do best with a human or family who will allow his quietly charming, silly personality to unfold in time. Your rewards will be great!
This is a very special cat who wears his ear-tip like a badge in remembrance of his poignant origins.

Orion is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. His adoption fee is $150.
