My story

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

Meet Nutty Buddy 💛

Nutty Buddy is a sweet, loving boy with a heart as big as his soft, fluffy paws. Even after everything he’s been through, he remains incredibly affectionate—just a few gentle pets and he’s purring away, showing just how much he loves attention. He seems to enjoy being held and snuggled, and his calm, gentle nature makes it clear he’s ready to form a strong, trusting bond with the right person. Though his fur still shows signs of the severe neglect he endured, with time, care, and plenty of love, he will fill out and shine as the majestic long-haired cat he is meant to be.

Nutty Buddy’s story is one of resilience and hope. He was rescued from one of the most severe neglect cases our team has seen, where 33 animals were found living in unimaginable conditions in a Dayton neighborhood. The home was overflowing with trash, animal waste, and decay, and many animals were confined to tiny cages layered in filth. Once he arrived at the Humane Society of Greater Dayton, our medical and care teams immediately began lifesaving treatment, and Nutty Buddy began experiencing safety, comfort, and love for the very first time in a long while.

Despite his past, Nutty Buddy is still a sweetheart who deserves a forever home where he will be cherished. With patience, affection, and a cozy place to call his own, this gentle boy is ready to show just how loving and loyal a companion he can be. He’s looking for a family who will treasure him and give him the life he’s always deserved.

More about this shelter

The Humane Society of Greater Dayton is proud to be a no-kill animal welfare agency. We are committed to finding great homes for great pets! As a 501(c)(3) nonproft, we receive no government funding and rely solely on donations from individuals, companies and grants to fund our programs and services. We are not affiliated with any other animal agency on a local, state or national level. Since 1902, our organization has been devoted to being a voice for the voiceless. Although we proudly find more than 2,000 animals forever homes every year, we are far more than an adoption center. We currently have a wide array of programs to support animals in our community. Through our high-volume spay and neuter clinic, we are able to help pet owners as well as battle cat overpopulation through Trap-Neuter-Return. Our humane society agents also work tirelessly to protect pets from cruel and neglectful circumstances through our Cruelty & Neglect Investigations Department. Through our Veterinary Hospital, we can provide top-quality access to veterinary care at a low cost to pet owners. In addition to our many programs, our organization is unique because we are the only agency in the community able to handle all types of animals. This includes cats and dogs but also rabbits, birds, farm animals, pocket pets and exotics. Our organization is committed to providing our community, our state and our region with support and care.
