About Cassius

Cassius is a young domestic shorthair with a lot of potential, waiting for a home where he can truly settle in and be himself. Shelter life can make even the friendliest cats seem uncertain or reserved, and Cassius is no different—once he’s in a comfortable, stable environment, expect him to blossom. Cats like Cassius often turn out to be totally different animals once away from the stress of a rescue, showing affection and curiosity when given a little time. For kittens and teenagers under a year old, Connecticut Cat Connection asks that they be adopted in pairs unless there’s already a playmate at home, so Cassius will thrive if he has another cat or friendly dog companion. Foster opportunities are also available if you’re not ready to adopt but still want to help. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
