Citrus's Info...
| Breed: | Domestic Shorthair | Color: | Orange Or Red | Age: | Adult |
| Sex: | Male | Hair: | Short |
I am already neutered, housetrained, a special needs pet, up to date with shots, and good with cats.
Citrus is a consummate individualist who has developed a fondness for certain volunteers who regularly visit the shelter. He appreciates their willingness to scratch his neck and behind his ears; sometimes he even curls up in a warm lap. Citrus is a little shy of being picked up, but likes to be petted gently. He will purr with contentment while receiving affection from his favorite humans.
On warm days, Citrus enjoys sunning himself in the shelter's secured back yard, showing off his gorgeous orange classic tabby markings. When it’s chillier out, he prefers to loaf in a warm, quiet spot atop the kennels, delighting in the view of the yard from his perch. He is more of a relaxer than a player, and gets along with the other cats very well.
Citrus is FIV+ and very healthy. He has had a surgery to correct an entropion eyelid to lessen the irritation in his left eye. He was born in 2004 and has been at the shelter since 2008.
Wouldn't you like to make this lovely boy a part of your life? You won't be sorry you did. Come visit Citrus today, and take him home with you!

The ARAS Mission: ARAS is a no-kill cat shelter dedicated to preventing cruelty to animals, and providing a safe shelter and a second chance for homeless cats and kittens.

ARAS is committed to helping animals in need of safe environments and people in need of solutions.
