Milwaukee Record is working in partnership with Urban Cat Coalition to help find loving homes for area cats. Each week, we—with generous sponsorship from Skilos, A Family Pet Store—plan to highlight a feline friend that’s currently up for adoption by naming it “Milwaukee Record’s Cat Of The Week.” This week: a sweet and funny fella named Crow.
Crow is a rare all-black boy with a heart as soft as his fur and a vibe that’s equal parts shy roommate and low-key stand-up comic. He’s the kind of cat who might take a little while to come out of his shell, but once he does, you’ll discover a quietly charming, sweet-natured buddy who’s just as happy to observe life as he is to sneak in a silly moment or two.
He isn’t the kind of guy to rush into things. Crow appreciates calm spaces, gentle voices, and a little time to feel safe. But don’t let his quiet demeanor fool you. Once he’s comfortable, he’ll come around for pets, give you that slow-blink of trust, and absolutely light up when the wand toy makes an appearance. His hunting instincts kick in, and suddenly you’re watching a master in action, with the occasional hilarious misstep to keep things humble.
He’s not loud, not flashy, and definitely not dramatic. Crow is all about the small, sincere moments: a comfy nap spot, a good play session, and some well-earned affection. If you’re looking for a cat who will never knock your coffee off the table for attention (but might stare at it suspiciously), Crow could be your perfect match.
Quietly funny, deeply sweet, and endlessly charming in his own understated way—Crow is ready to find a forever home that sees the magic in a soft soul.
Notes: We think Crow would do just fine with another chill feline friend or dog in the home. He has a tendency to get picked on by alpha cats, so chill is key. He is a bit too shy for all the activity of young children, but would be fine with older kids and teens.
