Description:
Get ready to fall in love with Hobbes- a sweet, quiet, and gentle companion who loves nothing more than being by your side. Meet Hobbes, a soul-soothing companion whose gentle nature will capture your heart from the moment you meet. This sweet, quiet gentleman has mastered the art of peaceful presence, offering the perfect balance of affection and independence. Whether elegantly draped across his favorite blanket or creating a cozy impression on your bed, Hobbes brings tranquility to any space he graces. As a cat who prefers to live only with adults, Hobbes reserves his most tender moments for his human companions. His affection comes with charming boundaries—he adores attention and gentle pets but with the self-awareness to communicate when he's ready for some space. There's something refreshingly sweet about his straightforward nature. Like many distinguished gentlemen, Hobbes comes with a few special care considerations that are easily managed with extra love. He thrives on a special renal support diet that helps with his chronic kidney disease, and he takes a daily medication to help manage his osteoarthritis, ensuring his days remain comfortable and pain-free. Rest assured, these small accommodations are a minor investment for the wealth of companionship Hobbes offers in return, and his grateful purrs will remind you that caring for his senior kitty needs is more than worth the effort. If you are looking for a furry friend who offers heartwarming cuddles and great companionship, Hobbes is the cat for you—the tender sweetness your heart needs and the gentle soul your home wants. Hobbes can go home with a THREE MONTH CARE PACKAGE including his special diet and medication! Age: ~9+ years How I came to PAWS: Owner surrender Animal ID#: A179175 I am not at the shelter.
