About Mr. Bibbs

Meet Mr. Bibbs, a sweet 15-year-old cat who's ready to experience life outside the confines of a single room for the first time. For too long, he lived in a small space to keep him safe from dogs, missing out on exploring a home and finding his favorite cozy spots. Now, he’s looking for a fresh start after the passing of his previous owner, who kept him under tight restrictions. Mr. Bibbs is understandably shy and timid, needing a patient person to help him adjust to a life filled with love and safety. He won’t rush to greet you or pounce into your lap at first, but with time, you’ll see his true personality emerge. He dreams of a soft bed in a quiet corner, a sunbeam to nap in, and a loving human who allows him to explore his new world at his own pace. At this stage in his life, Mr. Bibbs deserves much more than a second chance. He deserves the chance to live fully. Could you be the one to give him this beautiful gift? What are you waiting for?
