About Juan

Meet Juan! This friendly guy came to us because his previous home with other animals no longer suited him. With his sweet and affectionate personality, Juan is sure to win you over quickly. Juan thrives on mental stimulation and physical playtime. He’s not one to lounge around all day; he needs opportunities for active play as well as cozy cat-naps. To keep him happy indoors, make sure to provide plenty of enrichment such as perches and cat trees. After a busy day of exploring and playing, he loves a good cuddle and a sunny spot to watch the world go by. While Juan is social, he needs time to adjust to new surroundings. It’s important to start him off in a safe, secure room to help him settle in. Offering an additional litter box and maintaining hygiene will also make this transition smoother. Juan prefers to be the only cat at home due to some previous stress living with other pets. While he may tolerate a cat-savvy dog, a calm environment is crucial. He would do best in a household with older children or adults who can provide the predictability he needs. If you think you can provide the loving and enriching environment Juan is looking for, visit our Adoption Center to meet him! Your new best friend could be just a visit away.
