About Harry

Harry and his sibling Eddie were rescued from life on the streets and are now thriving indoors. At one year old, Harry, a handsome black and white tuxedo cat, is a bit shy but not unfriendly. He takes his time adjusting to new situations, while Eddie is the more outgoing one. Both of them purr loudly when being petted, showing their happiness and affection. Although Harry is still getting comfortable being held, he's eager to find a loving home where he can settle in. They are ready for adoption, and their fees are sponsored for a family that fits their needs well. If you think you could provide a great home for Harry, consider applying soon; they're available to go home next week!
