Story
I need to re-home this cat. I got the cat from a customer who didnt have the time and had 2 dogs that didnt adjust to the cat. I have little information other than hes a male, his age I dont know. I dont know if they ever took the cat to a veterinarian. I have had the cat since October 2025 so far hes a cool cat just not for me .Im quite busy and I just dont have time Im often tired from work and I just dont have the energy to deal with a cat . He is too needy and I am not entertaining the thought of getting another cat or playmate. I would like to find him a home with another cat so he isnt as lonely. I hate to give him to a shelter so I am trying this route first. Hopefully he can find his forever home . I will keep him a few more weeks

Story
Buster is a joyful little guy with a huge personality and an even bigger heart. He’s absolutely obsessed with squeezies and will happily show off his cutest antics the moment he sees that treat pouch come out. Playful, curious, and always ready for fun, Buster brings life and laughter into every room he enters. When he’s not chasing toys or trying to charm you out of another squeezie, he loves curling up for affection. He’s incredibly loving, enjoys being close to his humans, and has a gentle, sweet nature that makes him easy to adore. Buster is also dog friendly, especially with pups who enjoy a friendly feline companion. If you’re looking for a playful sweetheart who will make every day brighter, Buster is ready to steal your heart. ##2535680##
