Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption

Chief Mate Gary is a big, beefy boy with the jowls of a prizefighter and the heart of a hopeless romantic. One look at his sturdy frame and you might thin he's a tough guy, but that's just clever street smarts talking. Life on the outside taught Gary to look like a bruiser. In reality? He's a sensitive, affectionate teddy bear who just wants to love and be loved.

Gary will quietly let you know when he needs attention. He will notify you he's eager to be free of his enclosure and back where he belongs, in someone's arms. When you meet him he's quick to greet you with a curious sniff and a friendly head lean. He adores having his big jowls massaged and his forehead scratched, pressing in with a rumbling purr.

This meaty boy has energy to spare and benefits from playtime to help channel it. Wand toys? Yes, please! Gary is an expert hunter. Felt toys and soft mice dusted with catnip get him rolling, rubbing and blissfully engaged. He's less impressed with the flashy bells-and-whistles toys. Gary is a simple guy at heart.

Gary would thrive in a home that understands big personalities and even bigger hearts. A home that can offer patience, play, enrichment, and lots of affection. In return, you'll get a loyal, snuggly companion who leans into your hand, devours his favorite treats with gusto, and gazes up at you like you hold the world in your hands.

Chief Mate Gary is ready to retire from street legend status and become someone's cherished first mate for life.
