YOU'RE GONNA LOVE ULYSSES! Ulysses, a very friendly, talkative fellow, has been trying to tell us all about the Odyssey he'd been on before coming to our shelter. Unfortunately, he doesn't speak English and we're not entirely proficient in Cat. Suffice to say it was quite an ordeal and he's very glad it's over. He'll be the happiest boy in the whole wide world when he finally finds the forever home he's been searching for! We think Ulysses is about 2 years old. He's been neutered, wormed, vaccinated and is a very good boy with his litter box. Are there words enough to tell you how wonderful he is? Perhaps not, but we shall try. Most cats coming into the shelter take some time to adjust and get integrated into the herd. If you've ever had to start school in the middle of the year, you'll know just how they feel. As soon as Ulysses had recovered sufficiently from his neutering surgery, he marched out of his cage to explore his interesting new world. Being a bigger guy, the other cats took umbrage to his presence for the first day or two, and several growled and smacked at him. Did this deter him from investigating his new digs? Not in the least! He walked through the fray like a world traveler who's seen it all, unphased by their less than welcoming behavior. Ulysses gets along great with anyone and anything. People are his most favorite species, though it's questionable whether we deserve that honor, especially considering what happened to him in his former life. He loves being picked up, petted and hugged so the more quality time he can spend with his special humans, the happier our adventurer will be.
