About Dasher

Meet Dasher, a charming little fellow ready to steal your heart! With his striking marbled tabby markings, he’s not just handsome but also sweet and affectionate. Dasher loves nothing more than curling up in your lap, purring contentedly as you give him some love. He enjoys his morning naps but becomes playful or cuddly in the afternoons. Although he may take a day or so to get comfortable in a new place, he quickly warms up and will greet visitors with curiosity after a while. In his foster home, he’s a bit reserved around dogs, but he doesn’t seem to mind them much and could likely live happily with a calm dog or two. Dasher gets along well with his buddy Kennet; they love to race around and play together. If you’re looking for a cuddly companion, consider completing the online adoption application or join us at our weekly adoption event at PetSmart on Bleachery Blvd. This could be the start of a wonderful journey together!
