Meet Nips!
Nips is a confident, affectionate boy who knows exactly what he wants: head rubs, window views, and your company. He loves spending his day watching the world go by from a sunny window perch, and you’ll know he’s especially happy when he’s stretched out and gently wagging his tail.
This sweet black cat is always close by—he’s become his foster mom’s little shadow and loves following her from room to room. He has the softest little meow, loves to give kisses, and isn’t shy about demanding head rubs whenever he thinks he’s due (which is pretty much 24/7).
One of Nips’s most charming features is his unique haircut behind his ears, which gives him the look of a tiny Albert Einstein or a distinguished old gentleman. Combined with his loving personality, it makes him completely unforgettable.
Nips is a gentle, easygoing boy who would likely do well in a home with respectful children. He enjoys being around his people and would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal shadow and best friend.
If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate cat who will follow you around, keep you company throughout the day, and happily supervise the neighborhood from the nearest window, Nips is your guy.
Nips is a 2-3 year old neutered male cat with up to date shots. If you’re interested in adopting him please fill out an online application at https://melrosehumanesociety.org/adopt
