About Junior

Meet Junior! This sweet, affectionate boy thrives on play and fun. His previous family shared that he got along well with kids and other cats, making him a delightful companion for any home. Junior loves to chase toys and showcase his playful side. Once playtime wraps up, you'll find him curled up in a cozy spot, whether that's your bed or the couch. However, change can be tough for Junior. He may feel nervous when you first bring him home, so it's essential to set up a quiet space with a litter box, food, and water. Expect it to take a few days for him to feel comfortable and secure in his new environment. A behavior plan will accompany him to help ensure a smooth transition. Junior is ready to find his forever home. If you think you can provide the loving space he needs, don't hesitate to reach out — he could be the perfect addition to your family!
