Bobo - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Wheaton, Illinois

Meet Bobo — a shy little sweetheart with a HUGE motor!

Bobo may be a bit of a scaredy cat at first, but underneath that shy exterior is an extremely affectionate little love bug just waiting to feel safe.

Once Bobo settles in and realizes he can trust you, the transformation is pretty adorable. He snuggles in close, turns on his very loud purr motor, and gives you the sweetest little “lovey eyes” while soaking up all the affection. He truly loves being loved — he just needs a little patience to get there.

Bobo would especially love a home with a sweet, confident older cat who wants a baby to mother. Having another kitty to cuddle with, follow around, and learn from would help give him the confidence and security he needs.

He may not be the kitten who marches up to you first, but give him a little time and you'll discover an incredibly gentle, affectionate boy who just wants to feel safe, snuggle close, and be somebody's baby.

Bobo doesn't need to be the bravest kitten — he just needs someone who will give him the time to show how loving he really is.
