Pickles- Working Cat's Story

Hire Pickles! Waived adoption fee!<br/><br/>2-year-old Pickles is a handsome tabby with huge bug eyes, gorgeous swirl-striped markings, and the cutest pink nose you've ever seen. He was trapped on the streets of Baltimore after spending much of his life figuring out how to survive on his own.<br/><br/>While Pickles has his moments of friendliness and can be quite chatty once he's comfortable, he's a quirky, independent guy who prefers relationships on his own terms. He can be a little unpredictable and socially awkward, which is why we believe he'd thrive in a working cat home rather than a traditional household.<br/><br/>Pickles is looking for a safe place where he can enjoy shelter, regular meals, and the freedom to be himself while helping keep rodents away. Ideal placements include:<br/><br/> Barns, sheds, or farms<br/> Stables and equestrian centers<br/> Warehouses, factories, or garages<br/> Body shops or car dealerships<br/> Greenhouses and nurseries<br/> Vineyards, wineries, or distilleries<br/> Salvage or scrap yards<br/><br/>One thing Pickles does enjoy? Other cats! He's great with feline friends and would likely appreciate having other working cats around.
