Notes from Best Friend Pet Adoption

Pinto

DOB: May 2026 (est)

Neutered Male Short Hair Black Tuxedo

You’ve heard that beans are good for your heart, and I’m no exception (but I don’t bring those, uh...side effects). Hi there, I’m Pinto. I’m every bit as sweet and adorable as my brother, Garbanzo. What I really need most in life is an extremely cuddly best buddy and—fair warning—that friend should be okay with a little suckling now and then (it’s a comfort thing, don’t judge me!).

My brother is my #1 favorite napping buddy, but if there is another kitty in the house (or even a friendly pup), I’ll be a happy guy! I can be kind of shy at first, so I would do best in a home with older kids (age 12, at least). But once I’m settled in, y’all will have a best friend for life (no taksey-backseys).

I’m also pretty high energy and am always up for some fun and games. Teaser wands, cardboard boxes, tunnels...hand me anything and I’ll find a way to have a great time! I’ve recently discovered that the broom is not, in fact, my mortal enemy, but I’ll attack it anyway, just to show it who’s boss.

So, if you’re looking for a sweet, if a little shy, little buddy who loves to sleep curled up next to your legs every night, let’s get to know each other. The nice people at Best Friend Pet Adoption will tell you all you need to know about adopting me.

Dogs: Must have kitty manners

Other cats: Good with others, needs a kitty friend

Kids: Over 12 with kitty experience
