George Washington

George Washington
is a big, classic orange-and-white boy who sits regally at the front of his kennel, offering calm, slow-blinks to visitors like a true gentleman.

Still a bit shy (no sudden moves, please), he's the most outgoing of his group. He accepts gentle head scratches and even leans in slightly, with the start of a purr.

Trust level:

Petting: Yes - dignified head scritches welcomed

Picking up: Not yet

Play: Secretly loves wand toys and does polite pounces

Other cats: Excellent with his brothers Thomas Jefferson and John Adams - they groom and snuggle. He'd thrive with at least one calm cat friend.

He's looking for a quiet, adult home where he can continue building trust at his own pace. A patient family that celebrates small victories (and bonus points for adopting with one of his brothers) will turn this soft orange gentleman into a loyal, purring lap cat.

If you want to watch a big orange-and-white boy go from wary statue to biscuit-making patriot, come meet General Washington. He's ready to cross the Delaware straight into your heart. Adopting with Jefferson or Adams would make you a hero of 1776.
