Handsome's Story

Meet Handsome True to his name, Handsome is a strikingly beautiful boy with a gentle soul and a heart that's just waiting to blossom. This sweet male kitty is looking for a calm, quiet home with a patient family who understands that some cats need a little extra time to feel safe and secure. Handsome may be shy at first, preferring to observe the world from a cozy hiding spot while he learns that he's truly home. But with kindness, routine, and gentle encouragement, he begins to show his soft, affectionate side. Once he trusts you, you'll see the tender, loving companion he was always meant to be. He would thrive in a peaceful environment without a lot of hustle and bustle-somewhere he can settle in at his own pace and build confidence day by day. A patient adopter who celebrates small victories (like a curious peek or a brave step closer) will be rewarded with the quiet joy of watching Handsome come out of his shell. If you believe that the deepest bonds are built on trust and time, Handsome may be your perfect match. Give this deserving boy the safe haven he's been waiting for, and you'll gain a devoted friend for life.

C.A.R.E. Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy

All animals are spayed / neutered before they are available for adoption. This helps reduce pet overpopulation in the Ozarks - the highest in the country. Each animal is current on vaccinations. Both dogs and cats must receive three total sets of vaccinations to prevent deadly animal diseases. All animals at C.A.R.E. are kept current on their vaccinations while in our care (All animals are vaccinated for Bordetella or "kennel cough", DA2PPV, CVK-puppies, DA2PPV, Lepto-adult dogs, FVRCP-C-kittens & adult cats). Dogs and cats above the age of 12 weeks old also receive their rabies shots and are sent home with a rabies certificate, collar, & rabies tag. If a puppy or kitten is adopted before they have received the total three vaccinations, it is the responsibility of the adopter to provide them. Each animal has been dewormed and treated for fleas. Worms are parasites that can cause serious damage to your pet. C.A.R.E. deworms all of the animals in our care.
