Meet Josiah

This week’s Tuesday’s Child, 13-year-old Josiah, is a kind and funny kid who has a natural ability to connect with others.

What Makes Josiah Special

One of Josiah’s biggest passions is animals, especially cats. He dreams of having a cat of his own someday and already has the perfect name picked out: Shadow. His gentle and caring nature shows he would be a loving and responsible pet owner.

In his free time, Josiah enjoys playing Roblox on his tablet and exploring the worlds of his favorite superheroes. He’s a big fan of Sonic, the Ninja Turtles, and especially Spiderman.

What Kind of Family Is Josiah Looking For

Whether he’s gaming, talking about animals, or sharing a laugh, Josiah brings energy, curiosity, and heart into everything he does.

Josiah is hoping to find a forever family who will support him, encourage his interests, and share in the joy he brings every day.
