Hello there, my name is Rex! I am a 2 year old Domestic Shorthair cat who was brought to CHA when my owner could no longer care for me. I am a very sweet gentleman who is a little shy at first. Once I get to know you though, I open up and begin to show my loving personality! I adore attention and will petition you for chin and ear scratches, but I am not a fan of being picked up or held. I dream of a forever home that has the patience to give me both the space and the attention that I crave. If you are looking for an affectionate little guy to add warmth and joy to your home, come out and meet with me at CHA today!
