Story
Bruce is a sweet lazy cat that we would've named Garfield if it wasnt such a cliche. He mostly minds his own business and as long as he has somewhere comfy to sleep that's what he will do. He is not a picky eater and will eat anything given to him.

Story
Hi, my name is Willow and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Apr 24, 2024. I like to build my confidence by observing your regular routine from a distance. Once I get in the groove of it, I can tailor mine to yours! If you’re sitting on the couch, I’ll be curled up on your lap expecting pets. If you’re outside, I’ll be managing from a window perch. I’ll be your fabulous feline friend, I just need to get comfortable first.

A loving partnership is what I`m looking for, and I`d love it if that was with you!
