He’s still young, playful, and curious, but more than anything, he’s ready to trade shelter life for a place to truly call home. Garfield needs adopted now so he can grow up knowing comfort, consistency, and the love every cat deserves.

Garfield may only be 5 pounds, but don’t let his size fool you — this handsome orange boy has the confidence of a full-grown lion and the appetite of… well, a cat named Garfield. He’s sweet, silly, and convinced that every human he meets is his new best friend (and potential snack provider). Adopt Garfield today — because every family deserves a tiny orange comedian.
