Meet Bubba! This handsome, chubby senior gentleman is all about the simple joys in life: good company, cozy naps, and plenty of pets. Bubba is a friendly and social guy who loves meeting new people-he'll happily trot right over when you call his name, ready to greet you with affectionate head bumps and full-body rubs. If you're lucky, he'll even flop over and show you his belly as a sign of trust (and maybe a hint that he wouldn't mind a few extra scratches!). Bubba is looking for a home where he can relax and be pampered like the king he is. Because of his size and age, he'll need a little help with routine grooming to keep his coat in tip-top shape and prevent matting-he's already enjoyed a bit of a spa day with a shave and is feeling much more comfortable now! A family willing to help him stay clean and comfy will go a long way in keeping this sweet boy happy. While Bubba lived with another cat many years ago and did well, he would benefit from a slow and thoughtful introduction to any new furry friends. He's also a bit sensitive to loud noises, so a calmer home where he can feel safe and secure would suit him best. If you're looking for a lovable, low-key companion who will greet you at the door, keep you company, and remind you to slow down and enjoy the moment, Bubba might just be your perfect match. Come meet this big sweetheart-you won't be able to resist his charm! Ready to Adopt? You have two options: #1- VISIT IN PERSON Come during our open adoption hours: Tuesday - Saturday,12:30 - 3:00pm.
