Bennie is a 3-year-old, medium-sized male Domestic Short Hair. He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and house trained. Living in Cedar Rapids, IA, he has a gentle nature and enjoys the company of other cats. Although he currently weighs in at an unknown amount, he's healthy and ready for a new home. He’d do well in a nurturing indoor environment.

About Bennie

Bennie had a rough start, found with a piece of garden tile around his neck in Jones County. Thankfully, a kind rescuer contacted Critter Crusaders for help, and Bennie was sedated to remove the tile, during which he was also neutered. Currently, he’s being assessed by SAINT to see if he’s ready for an indoor life or if he needs to be relocated. He will do best in an indoor home unless he becomes part of our barn cat program. Adoption is limited to residents within approximately 45 minutes of Cedar Rapids, IA, and we’re only able to facilitate Iowa adoptions for now. Home visits will be conducted, and our Cedar Rapids adoption center is open by appointment only. Schedule a time on our Facebook page or website. Bennie is ready for a fresh start in a loving home.
