Mateo is a very friendly and social DSH black male kitten about 3 months old. 

He loves his people and his siblings and negotiated an understanding with the adult cats and the dog in his foster home - most notably by standing his ground puffed up like a Halloween Cat. He now runs the show along with his siblings. The adults even give way at the food bowl. 

Mateo loves to curl up in a cuddle puddle on his foster mom's lap after the zoomies, and purrs as soon as you start petting him. He also likes to sit on your shoulder when you are on the couch and wind around your neck for kitty kisses and head bumps. 

He is also very comfortable and brave with the 4-year-old in his home and loves chasing after her as she drags a feather wand toy around. 

Mateo will thrive in an active home with lots of attention and running room. He loves to romp and nap with his siblings so would do best in a home with one of them or another young, friendly cat in the home. 

If you think Mateo (and perhaps one of his siblings) would be a great fit into your heart and home, please contact Laura at 540-272-3506.
