Buffy
AvailableBuffy is an 8-year-old, 7-month-old spayed female Domestic Short Hair, with striking orange coloring, currently in Union, MO. She’s up to date on vaccinations, has no teeth issues after a recent dental, and her unique walk is from being cow-hocked, but it doesn’t slow her down. Buffy is living well with short-bowel syndrome, which is easily managed with psyllium husk in her food. She thrives as a lap cat, especially in a calm environment.
About Buffy
Buffy has been in foster care for about a year and a half, but she’s finally healthy and ready to go home. This buff-orange senior lady is a true lap cat—she hops onto your lap the minute you settle in for TV and will happily stay there for hours. Buffy is living well with short-bowel syndrome, which is managed easily by adding a touch of psyllium husk powder to her canned food; the supplement doesn’t bother her at all, and it keeps her digestion on track. She also recently had eight teeth pulled, so she shouldn’t need dental care again for quite a while. If you notice her unique sashay when she walks, that’s due to being cow-hocked (her ankles point in, toes out). She's been thoroughly checked out—no luxating patellas or other issues, just her signature strut. Buffy is spayed, current on shots, FIV/FELV negative, and she does best without small children since her tummy is sensitive. She’s calm, affectionate, and simply wants a gentle home where lap time is always on the table. Fun fact: Buffy is a Libra—expect plenty of charm and the occasional need to keep the peace.

Questions about Buffy
What type of living environment is this breed usually best suited for?
Domestic Short Hair cats like Buffy are adaptable, but they do best in calm, stable indoor homes where they can have comfortable, quiet spaces to relax. Buffy in particular enjoys a home where lap time is part of the daily routine and there aren’t small children reaching under her tummy.
How much outdoor space does this breed typically need?
Buffy is a domestic cat and should remain indoors for her safety, as is standard for most Domestic Short Hair cats. She won’t need outdoor access, just a cozy spot inside with plenty of attention and a soft lap to nap in.
Is this breed typically suitable for homes with children?
Domestic Short Hairs often get along with children, but Buffy is best suited to a home without small kids, as she is sensitive to being touched under her tummy.
