Story
🐾 Meet Pepper! 🐾Pepper is a sweet, playful 6-year-old boy looking for his forever home. He is neutered, up to date on all shots, and fully litter-box trained. He loves to play, but he’s mostly a total couch potato who enjoys lounging around, belly rubs, and lots of cuddles. ❤️Pepper has lived with a toddler and is generally okay with her, but young children and their activity can sometimes make him stressed. We feel he would thrive best in a home with older children or teenagers who understand and respect cat boundaries.He has been socialized around dogs, but would prefer a home without dogs or with a very calm, low-energy senior dog.Pepper is sensitive to big changes. During my pregnancy, he became very stressed and withdrawn and seemed to struggle with the changes. He eventually adjusted, but still isn’t completely comfortable around little kids. Since we are hoping to expand our family, we feel a home that better suits his personality would be best for him.
