Earl is a young male cat who was brought to the shelter due to housing issues. He has had a rough time here and we have been working with him to help him feel more comfortable. He bit a previous adopter and while we do not know the exact circumstances, we believe it may have happened because he has not had a lot of handling experience and does not like to be picked up or held. He does allow gentle pets on his head and can be led into a carrier successfully. Earl's previous owners reported that he lived with other cats and a dog without issue and that he was gentle and sweet. We hope that he can recover from his time in the shelter in a home that will give him some patience and a lot of love.
