Arlo was surrendered to the shelter and looking for his new place to call home! Arlo was previously allowed to be an indoor/outdoor cat. Unfortunately, his wandering was causing his owner concern for his well-being, which ultimately led to his surrender. A friendly reminder that the outdoors can be dangerous for our feline friends and they can also wreak havoc on local wildlife. We encourage his next owner to provide a catio so Arlo can safely enjoy the outdoors. He was said to do well with people of all ages including babies and children. Arlo was also said do generally do well with other cats, but he dislikes dogs. We recommend that Arlo go to a home without dogs to help set him up for success. Arlo is litterbox trained and has used it well at the shelter. His owner also said he loves his treats and comes running when he hears the bag shake. If you are interested in meeting Arlo, please let us know!
