Hey folks! Thanks for checking me out. I'm Brody, and I am a gentle old soul that is a little more set in my ways than some of those young whipper snappers I've seen around here. I don't enjoy loud noises or busy households. I prefer a quiet loving home. I do like to sit beside my person, sharing their space while they watch TV or read a book. I REALLY like being talked to, and I'm a very good listener! I would love it if we could sit by a window together and watch the birds. I'll be on my best behavior. I would love a soft place to stretch out and take a nap. Maybe we could do that together? I do like to wake up early in the morning. I'm kind of a morning person, I mean, CAT! If you are a morning person, too, maybe we would be a perfect match! Come see me... I'd love to meet you!
Interested in adopting me? We recommend submitting a general online adoption application and then heading to the shelter during our normal adoption hours (Mon: 12-4pm and Tues-Sun: 12-5pm) to meet our available animals. Please note: all applications are considered general until the animal has been met. If you have any questions, please contact animalcenter@bmorehumane.org or 410-833-8848 Ext/Opt 2.

More about this shelter
The Humane Society of Baltimore County, now known as the Baltimore Humane Society (BHS), was founded in 1927 by a pioneering and compassionate socialite named Elsie Seeger Barton (1886-1983).
In 1902, at age 16, Miss Seeger was stricken with rheumatic fever and was confined to her bed. During that time, her constant companions were the family’s beloved pets. It was at that time that Ms. Seeger resolved to devote her life to the care and humane treatment of companion and service animals. When she became well, she established a refuge for abused and homeless animals on her family’s estate, known as “Thistle Top” on Milford Road in Pikesville, MD, overlooking Gwynn’s Falls Dam. In 1908 she married Bolling Walker Barton, Jr., President of Barton, Duet & Koch Paper Company.
