Meet ANTHONY MEWCHAEL HALL! Rescued alongside his mom and littermates from a West Covina colony where the local coyotes were treating the cats like a well-stocked breakfast buffet, Anthony has already completed his field research in Survival 101.

This orange tabby is all bright eyes, oversized ears, and intellectual curiosity. Much like the brainiac from The Breakfast Club, he approaches life with thoughtful intensity, as though every crinkle ball presents a solvable equation and every new room requires careful analysis before full-scale exploration. He doesn’t rush the process; first he studies it, and then he aces it.

But do not mistake thoughtfulness for timidity. Once he determines the environment is secure (a reasonable standard), he commits wholeheartedly - to play, to cuddles, and to whichever human happens to be closest. He purrs with conviction, leans into pets with confidence, and settles into laps as if conducting longitudinal research on optimal snuggle duration. Preliminary findings: extensive physical contact improves morale.

Anthony is vaccinated (FVRCP and rabies), microchipped, flea treated, dewormed, FIV/FeLV negative, neutered, and hoping to trade academic vigilance for indoor tenure - replete with soft furniture, reliable meals, and a human who appreciates a kitten with both brains and heart.
