About Courage

Courage arrived over Memorial Day weekend 2024, which inspired his name. He’s a striking black and white tuxedo who always looks dressed for the occasion. While Courage might be a little shy when he first meets you, he finds comfort in the company of both people and other cats, especially after he’s had a bit of time to settle in. He’s all about exploring his environment and then curling up for a nap—pretty much an ideal cat routine. What sets Courage apart is how much he enjoys feline companionship. He must go to a home with another cat or kitten for company—this isn’t just a preference, it’s a requirement. He really thrives when he has a buddy. He does very well with other cats and kittens, and would probably adapt to a calm dog after a proper introduction and some patience. Courage is suited best to a calm, steady home where he can come out of his shell at his own pace. He’s neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, tested negative for FIV/FeLV/HW, dewormed, and has monthly flea prevention. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
