He doesn’t understand why he’s here and would much rather be left alone right now. The noise and change have been a lot for him, and he’ll likely choose to hide when he first arrives in a new home. He will need plenty of time, patience, and space to adjust at his own pace.<br/><br/>Smokey Joe is good with other cats and would truly love to be adopted with Tootsie if possible—they’ve been lifelong companions and a familiar face would mean the world to him. However, he can go to a home on his own, as long as his adopter understands that trust will take time.<br/><br/>This sweet senior boy isn’t asking for much—just a quiet home, a soft place to land, and someone compassionate enough to let him feel safe again. With gentle understanding and a calm environment, Smokey Joe will slowly realize he’s home.<br/><br/>If you believe that senior cats deserve comfort, dignity, and love in their golden years, Smokey Joe is waiting for you.<br/><br/>At the Humane Society of Midland County, all animals adopted will be spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations prior to an adoption.
