Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Canton, Massachusetts

Gus is still waiting 🧡🤍

This 2-year-old orange and white boy has a big personality and isn’t afraid to use his voice—he’ll happily let you know when he’s ready for attention (which, to be fair… is often).

His favorite place to be? Right alongside you. Sit on the floor—stretching, doing Pilates, or just hanging out—and Gus will be there, weaving around you, brushing up for love, and making sure he’s part of whatever you’re doing.

Gus can live with dogs who respect cats. He’s not quite ready to be best friends, but he’s willing to share space with calm, cat-savvy pups.

He does need a patient home. Gus takes time to feel safe and doesn’t love change, but once he settles in, his affectionate and engaging personality really comes through.

And like any guy with a little sass, Gus will set his boundaries. If you come in too fast, he might give you a gentle “hey, not like that” tap (no claws—just communication!).

He’s doing well in his foster home for now, but he deserves a forever home where he can finally relax and be himself for good.

If you’re looking for a cat with charm, opinions, and lots of love to give—Gus is your guy 🐾
