My personality

My story

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

This handsome boy with the amazing ears is Malachi! He was surrendered to the shelter on 9/24 because his owner could no longer afford to care for him. Malachi's former family did tell us that he is house-trained, and he's good with kids. Malachi needs a hero because he's very shut down and scared in the shelter. He's a very sweet boy, but he needs someone who will be patient, kind, and give him time to decompress and learn to trust again. The volunteers have discovered that Malachi is smart; he knows how to sit and lay down nicely when asked. If you have a soft spot for the shy kids, please come meet Malachi today!

Malachi is approximately 2 years old, and he weighs 55 lbs. He is UTD on vaccines, and he will be neutered, microchipped, and heartworm tested upon adoption. Malachi is waiting in run 872; his ID # is 662154.

Note - all the listings on Friends of Shelter Animals for Cobb are done by volunteers. If this cat or dog came in as a lost animal, we do not know how they might be with children, other pets, or if house trained. You can bring your pet to the shelter for a meet & greet with your potential new best friend. When inquiring about a cat or dog, please use THE ID NUMBER.
