August's Story

Hi, my name is August! I'm a PURPLE pawprint, which means I will fit well into a home that meets some specific criteria. Here is what would work best for me in my new home:<br/>-Personality: Friendly, vocal, easily overstimulated<br/>-Can Live with Cats: August has never lived with another cat. He would likely prefer to be an only cat.<br/>-Can Live with Dogs: August has never lived with dogs. He might be okay with a calm and cat savvy dog, so long as they are introduced safely.<br/>-Can Live with Kids: August would often scratch the baby in his previous household. His overstimulation will require him to go to a cat-experienced, adults only household.<br/>-Needs Indoor Only Home: Yes, August is used to living indoors.<br/>-History of Litter Box Issues: August was surrendered for peeing outside of his litter box. It does not seem to be a medical issue, and switching to clay litter seems to have helped in the shelter.<br/>-Energy Level: Moderate<br/>-Bite History: None<br/>-Needs Medical Procedure Before Going Home: Nope! <br/>Additional Information: <br/>Meet August, a sweet oddball of a cat who is looking for his forever home. He can be pretty nervous in new situations and he gets overstimulated easily. But once he is settled and comfortable, he is a very affectionate and social companion. He would do best in an adults only household that understands cat body language. If you think August is the cat for you, adopt today!<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website (www.whatcomhumane.org/adopt) or in person at our facility. We recommend calling into the shelter after your application has been submitted so our front desk can give you next steps on our adoption process.
