About Buddy

Buddy is a gentle soul adjusting to a new chapter in his life. After losing his previous owner, he's searching for that special bond again. While still a bit shy, he shows his lovable side when given attention and affection. Buddy prefers to take his time, often watching from a cozy hiding spot until he feels comfortable. This four-year-old has a unique crooked jaw, a feature he was likely born with. Fortunately, it doesn’t affect his health at all. He gets along well with other cats and would thrive best in an adult-only or cat-only home since he hasn't been around dogs or children. If you have a quiet, patient space and lots of love to offer, Buddy could be the perfect match for you. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
