Yukon Cornelius is a 5 year old gentle, sweetheart who gets along great with people, dogs, and other cats. Yukon is a big cat with some extra lbs, but this doesn’t slow him down a bit; he is playful and curious and has no trouble zipping around the house when the zoomies hit!
Yukon loves attention and snuggles (even belly rubs!) but is also happy peacefully doing his own thing in the house. Yukon especially loves looking out of the window, sitting next to you on the couch, and adorably batting around his toy mouse. He is also friendly with the dog and cat in his foster’s household and we believe he would be happy in a family or individual home. Overall, a gem of a cat!
Yukon Cornelius is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on shots. Yukon is on a weight loss journey and has steadily been losing weight, so his adopter should be prepared to help him continue to slim down through playtime and a special diet. As a part of his weight loss plan, Yukon eats prescription food that is designed to help him safely lose weight and - great news - Yukon will go home with a month supply of this food.
