Eli

Gender: Male
Age: 7 years (est. DOB 4/15/2016)
Breed: Tuxedo
Hometown: San Jose, CA
Clan: Ella, Emma, Ethan
Status: Adoption pending

We were surrendered to a local shelter when we were about 6 weeks old.  We weren't very happy to be in the shelter -- we were scared and frightened and missed our mom --  and we hissed and spat at the shelter staff.  They decided we weren't "adoption candidates" and placed us on a "special needs list" -- in other words, if a rescue group didn't take us, we were goners.  Fortunately the Fat Cat people saw our photos and knew we'd settle down once we were out of the shelter and got lots of love and attention.

I am a handsome Tuxedo kitten and I'm very loving and playful.  Just like my brother Ethan, I really like people and when you pick me up, I will start purring immediately.  I don't mind telling you that out of all my siblings, my fur is the softest, just like velvet.  I guess I was just born lucky.  I love playing with my brother and sisters.  I'm the strong silent type -- I'm not a talker.  Sometimes I like to nibble my foster mom's hair - it's just my way of saying thanks for taking care of me!  I can't wait for someone special to adopt me.

Won't you take me home?
