Chub is a large male adult domestic short hair cat. He has been altered. Currently, he resides in Mason, MI. Due to his background, he may need some time to adjust completely to indoor living, but with the right support, he's bound to thrive.

About Chub

Chub arrived at the shelter along with several other cats due to allergies in the home where they were being cared for. He's friendly and comfortable being handled, but he does have a preference: he doesn't get along with male cats, while he is quite fine around females. Having been found outdoors, these cats have been adapting to indoor life, though it’s worth noting that some cats who enjoy outdoor access may struggle with the transition. Potential adopters should be prepared for a period of adjustment as Chub settles in and may want to help him curb any roaming instincts he might have. The right environment and a bit of patience can make all the difference in his new home. Your new best friend is just one click away.
