My story

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

HOW TO ADOPT: This cat is participating in our Shelter Cat Getaway foster program, which gives cats a vacation from the shelter and lets them enjoy home life while they wait to be adopted. To schedule a time to meet this cat, please contact Mary at mmccarroll@arl-iowa.org or Carol at cgriglione@arl-iowa.org.

Buddy and Boris are Bonded Buddies. They'll be adopted as a pair.



- Sweet, shy, loving cat who is very bonded to his cat buddy



- Once he is comfortable, and has settled into his new home, he enjoys hanging out with his humans and sleeping with you and cuddling at night!



- He loves to play with wand toys and will carry his toys around in his mouth to show you how proud he is of his "catch"



- Young, noisy or busy children are too much for him, so he's looking for a mature home that's calm and predictable



- Will be a wonderful friend for a calm, patient person who can give him the time and patience he needs to become comfortable



- He will thrive in a home with someone who loves the quiet life just like he does - he will be a wonderful companion



All adoptable cats and kittens are spayed/neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations (rabies and FVRCP as appropriate for their age)
