About Baxter

She needs time, patience, and a quiet environment where she can finally relax and feel secure. A serene home with cozy hiding spots will help her confidence grow. Baxter doesn’t do well with other cats or dogs and should be the only animal in the house. With a calm, understanding adopter, Baxter has a chance to blossom into a wonderful companion.
