My story

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

Pennington County Humane Society 



Baxter is a gentle, affectionate young cat with a heart as soft as his sleek black coat. He's the kind of companion who leans into your hand, purrs easily, and makes you feel chosen in the sweetest way. Whether he's curling up for a quiet nap or nudging you for more pets, Baxter brings warmth and calm to every moment.

He's also a cat who truly thrives with feline companionship. Baxter feels most confident and content when he has another friendly cat by his side — someone to play with, nap near, and learn from. A home with an existing cat (or a family willing to adopt a pair) would help him feel secure and bring out the very best in him.

Baxter would love a home that offers:

Another cat to bond with

Plenty of affection and gentle attention

A calm, loving environment

A cozy spot to curl up and relax

If you're looking for a sweet, loving companion — and you have room in your home and heart for a cat who adores feline friends — Baxter might be the perfect match.

Baxter is available for direct adoption or transfer to a trusted partner.
