About Puddles

Puddles is a large, adult cat who mixes affectionate, cuddly energy with a strong love of play. She greets people with an avalanche of purrs and is always ready for a snuggle session or to chase a toy. After a tail pull injury, Puddles developed some incontinence and needs to wear a diaper while she's out and about, though not all the time. Even so, she adapts fast—you'll find her hopping, running, climbing, and playing like any other cat. Puddles needs a cat-savvy adopter who understands her special needs and can provide the little bit of extra care she requires. Welcoming her into your home means making a huge difference for a cat who gives a lot in return. Puddles was born on February 2, making her an Aquarius, so expect a streak of independence in her playful nature. Your new best friend is just one click away.
