VERY TALKATIVE FELLOW LOVES BEING AROUND PEOPLE AND SHOWING OFF A LITTLE SILLINESS. WILL DO BEST WITH GENTLE KIDS OVER 8 YRS. HAS BEEN FINE AROUND OLDER KITTENS, NOT TESTED WITH ADULT CATS. WILL NEED REGULAR BRUSHING. Don`t worry that I`m a little scruffy looking right now. I have been outside for a while and it shows. You`ll receive a free grooming session upon adoption to use after 12/18/25 to make me gorgeous and soft again! You`ll just need to brush me every few days after that as part of our petting routine. I love getting attention and following you around. I like sitting with you and laying at your feet. I`ll do a few cute silly things trying to get your attention, like squirming around in the floor when I know you`re watching. Of course, I`ll be talking to be sure I have your attention too. I often like staying busy, so I like to explore and find things to do. I`ll love having a window perch and a cat tree by a window to chatter at birds and watch for squirrels. You want to put blankets on the furniture for lounging, and a big mat on the floor for stretching way out and sleeping. I haven`t shown interest in toys yet, but it would really help to keep me busy if you would help me learn to play. Start with our wand toy, slow across the floor, then fast to fly around to get me going. Bounce a ball across the floor and leave my little toys around to play with when I get bored. One of the motion activated toys like they have here from Amazon will keep me busy when I settle in and want something to do. The toy moving under a sheet with a fluttering butterfly on top is most popular. I`ll be right at your side or, forgive me, jumping on the counter when I hear a can pop open! I love canned food, but don`t let me talk to you into giving me too much! I`m fine with dry food left out and drink plenty of water. I know what shaking treats means, and I will do anything, or go anywhere to get treats, so it`s a good way to train me! I will even take them from you if you hold out one at a time! I`ll be a little excited at first, but will mellow out some as I settle in. I`m sure to be a devoted and loyal buddy and companion offering lots of love to all my favorite people!

More about this shelter
The Colony Animal Services strives to protect andTCAS LOGO-UPDATED nurture The City of The Colony’s lost, homeless, abused, injured, and sick pets. We seek to provide animals the opportunity to be reclaimed, adopted, rehabilitated, or rescued. It is the mission for the Animal Service Officers and volunteers to pursue a positive synergy and to serve the citizens and pets of The Colony.
Animal Services is committed to saving each and every animal that comes into our care. Over the last few years, we have improved our live release rate to 97%. We hold our standards high at keeping this percentage, and in doing so, we ask our rescue partners and citizens to help us pursue finding our animals forever homes.
Every year, we get over a hundred injured and sick animals that need our help. In order for us to help them, we use our donated medical fund to give them the proper care and treatment they need. The only way for us to provide this needed medical care is through our generous financial donors. Every penny donated is sent to our medical fund. Please help us continue this much needed medical care for our animals by donating. Even if you cannot donate, it is a huge help to share posts on social media.
