Story
At just 8 months old, Sonny D. has already mastered the art of making friends. This boy is super friendly, incredibly sweet, and always ready for attention. If there’s a human nearby, chances are Sonny would like to know them, sit with them, and possibly convince them that whatever they were doing can wait because he has decided it’s time to play. Sonny loves to play, but he’s equally happy soaking up attention from his people. And because this social little guy enjoys having feline company too, he’ll need a friendly cat in his new home to keep him company and give him a buddy for all those important kitten-at-heart activities. Basically, Sonny D. is young, playful, social, and sweet—and he’s looking for a home where he can be loved, spoiled, and included in all the important activities. Which, according to Sonny, should probably be playing, making friends, getting attention, and being adored. Please be sure to read a cat's full bio before applying! We do our best to keep bios updated as we learn more about each cat or as circumstances change. The bio is the best place to find the most current and important information about their needs, personality, and ideal home. Thank you for your interest in adopting from Scruffy Paws Animal Rescue!
