I'm Arlo, a one-year-old orange tabby with a soft heart and an even softer purr. I arrived at Animal Ark with six of my feline friends after our owner suddenly found themselves with more animals than they could care for. It's been a big change, and I'm still finding my footing, but every day I'm learning that this new chapter comes with kindness: warm meals, cozy beds, and gentle voices reminding me I'm safe. My previous owner described me as shy, quiet, and wonderfully easygoing. I melt for slow, gentle scratches and love simple joys - ribbon wands, catnip mice, and little rolling balls that I can chase at my own pace. I've done well around other cats, though I haven't met dogs or young children yet. Because of my sensitive nature, a calm home with older kids would help me feel most secure. If you're thinking about adopting a pair, I'd be thrilled to go home with one of my friends - Riley, River, Roger, Patience, Pandora, or Pearl. I was especially close to Riley in my temporary home, and we'd make a lovely duo. If your family is ready for a new adventure - one filled with quiet companionship, gentle affection, and the joy of helping a sweet boy blossom - come meet me at Animal Ark. I'm waiting for someone who sees the potential in a tender soul like me.
