Nino's Story

Hi, my name is Nino! 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/><br/>-Personality: Chatty, affectionate, a little shy at first, observant, sensitive but sweet boy, energetic<br/>-Can Live with Cats: Unknown history - will need proper introductions to ensure everyone gets along<br/>-Can Live with Dogs: Unknown history - will need proper introductions to ensure everyone gets along<br/>-Can Live with Kids: Unknown history, but can be easily overwhelmed. Would prefer calm kids ages 12+<br/>-Needs Indoor Only Home: No<br/>-History of Litter Box Issues: None while here at shelter <br/>-Energy Level: Medium<br/>-Bite History: No<br/>-Needs Medical Procedure Before Going Home: Yes, a neuter<br/><br/>Additional Information: Nino the kitty came to WHS as a stray, so his history is a mystery. What we know so far is that he's a sweet and vocal boy who can be a little nervous in new situations. He enjoys cheek scritches and baby talk, but is sometimes overwhelmed by loud noises and too much handling. He doesn't really like to be picked up, and doesn't appreciate his belly or beans being touched, but other than that he's a pretty tolerant guy. Nino would likely do best in a quiet home with cat-experienced adopters who will respect his boundaries. It's likely that once settled into his new home, Nino will be a totally different kitty - he just needs some time to adjust! <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.
