Story

***I am bonded with brother, Void. We must be adopted together.***My name is Bruce and I am a black & white domestic shorthair. I am a neutered male and I am 1 year and 6 months old. I am here because I was given up by my owner on 09/29/2026 due to the fact my family had a new baby and I was not a fan of the baby. They were my family since I was 6 weeks old. I am used to staying inside during the day and inside during the night. I am a good kitty who uses the litterbox! I am a medium energy cat and I can live with an owner with no prior pet owning experience. I dash out open doors or windows if given the opportunity. I would do best in a setting with two doors between exterior doors, such as a screened in porch or hallway, or to be shut in another room or in a kennel before any doors or windows are opened. I can be good with men, women, and children over 2 years old. I lived with a 80 pound dog and we were good friends! I`ve never lived with another cat other than my brother, so it`s unknown how I would do with another cat.

HOW TO ADOPT: This cat is participating in our Shelter Cat Getaway foster program, which gives cats a vacation from the shelter and lets them enjoy home life while they wait to be adopted. To schedule a time to meet this cat, please contact Mary at mmccarroll@arl-iowa.org ---- A wonderfully chill cat who loves human companionship - when bedtime comes, her favorite spot is curled up right next to her human - She is a gentle, quiet soul who rarely meows - instead, she communicates with her delightfully expressive "deep-thinking tail," which swishes and twitches with personality whenever she's pondering the world around her- Great with other felines; she along wonderfully with other cats and takes new animal friends in stride- While she hasn't spent much time around young kids in her foster home, her calm, adaptable, and gentle disposition suggests she'll adjust smoothly to a variety of households - She is a cat who enjoys simple pleasures - keep a little tray of treats or cat grass nearby, and you'll instantly be her favorite human Primary Color: Brown Tiger Weight: 10.93 Age: 4yrs 5mths 3wks
