My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Grizzly & Panda were surrendered to our center when their guardian died. Panda has been adopted but poor Grizzly has been looked over time and time again. Grizz spends most of his day at the gate of their suite meowing at our volunteers, staff members and passerbys. All he wants is to be SEEN and HOME. He begs for our attention and is longing for...., forever.

Grizzly is quite scared to have been rushed into a new and unfamiliar environment, and now, he's lost all he knew.., Panda.., when Panda went to forever. We would love to adopt Grizz to a home with a family who will make sure he always feels safe. We suspect it will take time for him to decompress but have no doubt that if given the chance and given the love that he would flourish.

-The adoption fee is $175. -While they enjoyed one another's company, they did not appear to be bonded which is why we allowed separate homes. LET'S GET GRIZZLY HOME!
Both cats are quite scared to have been rushed into a new and unfamiliar environment, but they at least have each other for comfort. We would love to adopt these two cuddly bears to a home with a family who will make sure they always feel safe. We suspect is make take time for them to decompress but have no doubt that if given the chance and given the love that they would flourish.

-The adoption fee for the pair is $350, $175 each. And they must remain together for the remainder of their lives.
