Meet Yowler!
He is a striking 13.6-pound orange gentleman with a warm presence and a quiet charm. His bright coat and thoughtful eyes make him instantly memorable, but it’s his gentle spirit that truly stands out once he feels comfortable.
Yowler can be a bit reserved at first, and he appreciates a calm environment where he can take his time getting to know new people and new spaces. With patience and a gradual introduction, he begins to relax and reveal his affectionate, steady personality. Once he feels safe, he enjoys soft companionship, cozy resting spots, and the simple comfort of being near someone he trusts.
He is looking for a home that understands the value of going at his pace and giving him the space he needs to settle in. If you’re hoping for a loyal, mellow companion who will reward your patience with quiet affection and a warm presence, Yowler may be the perfect match.
