Physical Description Benny is a cute little tuxedo with a white ring around his nose.
Personality Benny is a really sweet little boy. He started with the SPCA at 2 weeks old as a bottle baby and has grown up around humans his entire life! He loves to cuddle, play, and run around with his brother. He's done very well around other foster kittens and cats. 

Benny is a very special boy who has congenital hypothyroidism. This is a relatively uncommon endocrine disorder in cats that makes Benny extra special! Benny requires daily oral medication to replace his thyroid hormone in order to grow and be a happy, healthy boy. He takes his medication very well. Benny's recheck labwork and medications are covered under a study at UC Davis until he is 1 year old. All of the cats being followed through this study are living happy healthy lives and many have been able to transition to once daily medication.

The Yolo County SPCA is a private, not-for-profit, foster home-based animal rescue organization and does not have a shelter. All our animals awaiting adoption are in foster homes. For more information about this animal, please email yolospcafoster@gmail.com. For more general questions, please see our website at www.yolospca.org.

 

 All of our felines have been altered prior to adoption. Kittens have been given their first shots of FVRCP, adults are up-to-date on vaccinations, and all cats have been Feline Leukemia tested (negative) and micro chipped. The fee to adopt is $135 for kittens or $80 for adults over 1 year (the fee helps cover these costs and the cost of the microchip registration).  A reduced fee is available for adopting a second cat or kitten
