About Buddy Bug

Buddy Bug is a timid yet charming boy who just needs a patient home to thrive. He’s a 4-paw declaw, which means his previous life as a barn cat wasn’t right for him. Surrounded by the wrong sounds, he found it difficult to cope, so he’s looking for a calm space where he can adjust at his own pace. Despite his shyness, Buddy Bug has the potential to be a wonderful family member. He gets along with other cats, so he might enjoy the company of feline friends as well. All he needs is a chance to show his true, sweet self in a loving environment. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Included in our adoption fee, all of our kitties are vaccinated, FELV / FIV tested, dewormed, microchipped, spayed / neutered, and checked out by a veterinarian. Buddy Bug is ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
