Buddy's Story

BUDDY is a male-neutered short hair grey subtle tabby cat with white chin, born about August 2019. He was rescued with Sassy Girl as stray kittens. Buddy's owner sadly had to relinquish him (and Sassy Girl) to YAPS early April 2026, because health problems forced her to move where no pets are allowed. Per his prior owner: "He's an indoor only cat, friendly, curious, outgoing, & good with other cats & children." We find him to be handsome & very loving. He usually comes to you for affection (especially if called by name), and may follow you around. If you're sitting, he may jump up beside you for your affection. He loves being petted (may purr softly in appreciation), & accepts being held for short periods. He gets along well with other cats. When adopted into a new home, he should initially be placed in a "safe room", to gradually adjust to his new surroundings

Yucaipa Animal Placement Society's Adoption Policy
The adoption fee includes spay or neuter surgery, vaccines and a microchip for dogs and cats. We do a thorough assessment of the animal’s temperament and needs so that we can find both them and you the companion of a lifetime. Our goal is to adopt out pets into permanent, loving homes. The YAPS Team is here to help you choose a pet that will fit in with your lifestyle and bring harmony to your home. YAPS does not currently offer transport for adopters outside of our surrounding area. Adopters must adopt a pet in person at our facility or adoption events.
