Gus's Story

GUS<br/><br/>GUS would like to introduce himself. He likes to play with his brothers & with all of his toys. Then hop onto the cat tree to see what is happening outside or maybe even take a nap. He is neutered, up to date with his vaccinations & litter trained. <br/><br/>Gus is a sweet little kitty. Very loving & he has a non stop motor! What he is hoping for is a home where he can play for a while then find a warm lap to curl up on & take a nap together. He thinks that would be really swell!<br/><br/>So if you have been looking for a lap warmer best buddy, GUS is your guy! He says he is easy to find. All you have to do is come to the shelter & ask for GUS. He’ll be waiting!<br/><br/>Birthdate 08/25/2025
