About Boogie

Boogie is a survivor with quite the tale. Rescued from a stoop in Bed-Stuy while sick and in dire need of help, he was brought to ACC but ended up on the At Risk list. Luckily, Boogie found a path to safety. After aggressive treatment and surgery to remove a polyp, this once-sick cat is now thriving. His unique Phantom of the Opera mask adds to his handsome looks. His foster family describes him as incredibly sweet and affectionate. Boogie is gentle and chatty, often coming running when called and responding to conversation. He enjoys following his humans around, and as he's regained his health, his playful personality is blossoming—especially when it comes to his newfound love for the laser pointer. At approximately 3-5 years old, this little boy adores human companionship. Boogie has so much love to give and deserves a home where he will be cherished for the devoted companion he is. With a past almost lost, this feline is ready to start fresh in a loving home. Boogie is tested, vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped.
