Cheetoh, domestic shorthair mix
Cheetoh is a darling male domestic shorthair mix being cared for at Animal Care Society, Inc.
He has all of his shots and he's been neutered. He's still working on getting house-trained.
There's no information on Cheetoh's profile about how he does with children or other animals, so it's worth asking Animal Care Society, Inc. directly.
Cheetoh's caretakers say:
This handsome orange tabby caught our eye when we were checking out websites for other shelters. When we were told that Cheetoh was super sweet, we just knew we had to make room for him at ACS. Although he was a little unsure when he first arrived and wanted to hide behind his litterbox, Cheetoh would quickly come out of his hidey-hole to get some much-appreciated ear rubs and head scratches as soon as he saw you approaching.

He is super friendly and loves everyone. Bam Bam loves to flop over for a belly rub. He is a beautiful, loving cat. He may need antibiotics periodically, due to a chronic condition. Bam Bam is one in a million.

Dewey, domestic shorthair and Russian blue mix
Dewey is the sweetest. He's a male domestic shorthair and Russian blue mix currently residing at Animal Care Society, Inc.
Dewey's ideal forever home would be a kid-free environment.
He has all of his shots and he's been neutered. He's still working on getting house-trained.
What my friends at Animal Care Society, Inc. think of me:
Dewey would fare better in a home with older children or adults. Dewey likes to be pet on his head, back and sides, but not his belly. He also doesn't like veterinarians. Dewey loves to play and every cat he meets he immediately sees as a playmate, so he'd be happiest in a multi-cat home.

She still needs some guidance on proper house-training. She already has all of her shots and she's been spayed.
Contact Animal Care Society, Inc. for information about Lucy's compatibility with kids and other pets.
Notes from Lucy's friends:
She loves attention, comes when called (most of the time) and is quick to return affection. Unfortunately, she doesn't feel the same way about other cats as she does people.
