About Buddy

Buddy is as entertaining as he is affectionate. This senior domestic shorthair has a big personality and an even bigger sense of humor. He’s obsessed with playtime—give him a ball, a catnip kick toy, or a string and he’ll make you laugh with his athleticism and goofiness. Churu treats and wet food are the way to his heart, and he won't hesitate to remind you with his deep, bullfrog-like meow. Sunbeams and cozy desks are his favorite spots for nap breaks, and he genuinely enjoys hanging out near his people. If you work from home, expect good company and a furry shadow. Buddy is happiest as the only cat getting all the attention, though he’d be fine as the top guy in a multi-cat household where he can lead the charge. He’s scared of dogs, so a canine-free home is a must, and he’s not suitable for homes with children. Buddy’s love for brushing and his signature “alligator rolls” are just some of his quirky highlights. Born under the sign of Taurus, Buddy is true to his zodiac: a little stubborn and a lot loving.
