MEET BLUEBELL! - I am in a foster home please make an appointment to meet me!
Bluebell flew to New England on a transport from an overcrowded shelter in Texas. Bluebell is very playful, she loves chasing stuffed mice and bringing them to you, she will loudly cry for your attention to show you her catch! She is a professional biscuit maker and sometimes will drool on the blanket while doing so. She tolerates being picked up but she will try to jump down almost immediately. She isn`t super affectionate or cuddly, but still likes to be around her fosters and will sit on or around us on the couch or in bed. Bluebell would benefit from a low traffic, cat experienced home because she is very skittish and gets easily spooked with sudden movements or noises. She may even do well with a social feline friend at home to help her adjust!
Bluebell is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been spayed/neutered, microchipped and been seen by our vet team.
For more information on this or any other animal currently residing at the Animal Rescue League of Boston, please call us at 617-426-9170. We welcome adopters from NH, RI, CT, and NY. However, we will be unable to facilitate same day adoptions due to state regulated paperwork requirements. Also, be sure to check out our:
