My story

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

HOW TO ADOPT: This cat is participating in our Shelter Cat Getaway foster program, which gives cats a vacation from the shelter and lets them enjoy home life while they wait to be adopted. To schedule a time to meet this cat, please contact Mary at mmccarroll@arl-iowa.org or Carol at cgriglione@arl-iowa.org.



- Very sweet cat!



- SERIOUS cuddler that also loves belly rubs (he'll roll around on the floor in front of you and ask for them), too adorable!



- Likes to play with his cat toys, especially batting around his crinkle ball



- Has gorgeous long fur that will need regular brushing (he will also need a consistent "sanitary groom" to keep the fur on his bottom short so he can clean himself)



- Loves being brushed and getting pets, and isn't afraid to "meow" and ask for them



- Will snuggle next to you in the mornings



- A really sweet boy that would make a great companion in a calm home



- Front declawed



- Requires a diet of a bit of canned food, dry kibble and probiotics (more information at the ARL)



- Has done well with another cat and a calm dog in his foster home, after a slow introduction
