Meet Anubis, a striking black short-haired cat with a gentle presence and soulful eyes. At first, he may seem shy, but beneath that quiet surface is a big-hearted boy just waiting to open up. Anubis is learning to trust and, with a patient approach, his affectionate side shines. He came in from difficult beginnings, rescued off the hot city streets, and is now discovering the comforts of indoor life one careful step at a time. He does well with other cats who understand his gentle spirit and enjoys their company in the cat room. Once trust is built, Anubis loves a good head butt and might even roll over for a belly rub—the surest sign he’s feeling safe and happy. He’ll flourish best in a quiet, low-key home where patience and understanding reign, rewarding it in turn with loyalty and warmth. Born in July, Anubis brings Cancer’s hallmark sensitivity and nurturing nature. He is neutered, vaccinated, and eager for the right person to give him a steady, loving home. Anubis is adoptable to families within 150 miles of Cincinnati and must be met in person. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
