About Lazarus

Lazarus is a gentle and somewhat shy cat seeking a loving home where he can feel safe. He's accustomed to a quiet, indoor environment and prefers adult company. Although he isn't a lap cat, he enjoys his independence. Lazarus was brought to the Central Vermont Humane Society along with his brother when their owner had to move and couldn’t take them. While they are quite comfortable together, they can also thrive in separate living situations. He would likely do well with another cat that has a similar demeanor or one that's not overly assertive. Though he has been around dogs, Lazarus prefers a dog-free home for his comfort. This sweet boy is ready to find a place to call his own. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
