About Garfield

Garfield found himself on the rough streets of Philadelphia, barely scraping by, until a kind foster stepped in to rescue him. Initially unsure of his temperament, she quickly discovered that he’s anything but feral. After treating a significant gash and addressing a flea issue, Garfield was neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. Once acclimated to indoor life, he started to thrive. Although he initially approaches new situations with caution, he’s incredibly sweet once he warms up to someone. Garfield does seem to prefer the company of women and would flourish with a patient adopter who understands his journey. Garfield is now ready for a loving home where he can continue to blossom.
