My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Teddy! Teddy came in through the cruelty department when his owner became overwhelmed with the amount of cats in her care. He was recently returned for not getting along with one of the resident cats in the home, but this easy going guy is now ready for his furrever home!

Teddy spent some time in foster care for our annual Home for the Holidays program and was described as cautious, but mellow! He did ok with the other cats, and although shy at first, warmed up to the older kids in his home as well! He likes head pets and scratches, the scratching post, and curling up in a nice warm bed! He will tell you when he's had enough, and will "love bite" ever so gently...but then come back for more when he's ready!

Teddy seems to be happiest with all the attention on him, talking and soliciting attention much more than when other cats are around. This fluffy dude spent some time curled up in a chair at the THS thrift store for a bit!! He would love to go to a quiet home without too much commotion where he can people watch from atop a tall cat tree!

Teddy is, as his foster describes him, "a distinguished, handsome gentleman. He has very handsome features including his wide-set eyes, broad nose, and large paws. He tends to stay fairly quiet, but began to "talk" more when he was with me one-on-one. When his foster sister tried to steal all of my attention, Teddy would keep out of her way and let her push him around a bit, never wanting to argue with such a strong female personality. Instead, he's a gentle giant with a sweet temperament that is starting to really know what love from a person is like. He hasn't let me hold him yet, but he has taken a liking to sitting on my chair, and started to stay on the chair with me when I sat down. He shares it with me for a few seconds before hopping down to rub against my legs. I'm hoping soon he will be ok with sitting on my lap! He's worth being patient!"

Interested in adopting this mellow, well-mannered, and handsome man?? Stop by and meet him today!!

More about this shelter

The Toledo Area Humane Society was founded on February 14, 1884. As one of the oldest humane societies in the United States, our original purpose was to prevent cruelty and provide refuge for both animals and children. To this day, we investigate cruelty to animals and provide homeless, abused and abandoned animals with protection and safety. TAHS is a private, non-profit organization and receives no funding from the United Way, the government, or national humane organizations. Donations from local individuals, corporations and generated by our fundraisers are the sole source of funding. Programs like Forever Friends, for people who include TAHS in their wills, and the Golden Paw League, for people who give gifts of $250 or more, have been established to give people donation options and to recognize their generosity. Volunteers help supplement the staff assisting with tasks both inside and outside of our facility. Volunteers provide enrichment for animals such as walking dogs or socializing cats. The Humane Education and Pet Therapy Visitation programs are dependent on our volunteers. Foster care volunteers provide a safe, nurturing environment for animals too young for adoption and for sick or injured animals. It is our goal to help every animal at-risk for abandonment or cruelty, and to find a home for every adoptable animal. The Humane Society is the only animal welfare group in this community who will give refuge to any animal at-risk for abuse or neglect, regardless of its type, health, age or whether we have space.
