Ross's Story

Meet Ross!<br/><br/>Ross is a 3-year-old fluffy-eared mystery mix who was found as a stray. Our staff have described Ross as “nonchalant,” and honestly... that’s pretty accurate. Ross couldn’t even be bothered to look at the camera for his adoption photo. <br/>Ross has a very cat-like personality, although to be fair, most cats are probably more personable than Ross. He’ll hang out near you, come over for a few pets, and if you want to pick him up, he’ll allow it. But is he going to jump in your lap and demand cuddles? Not really. He has places to be and things to do. <br/><br/>Ross isn’t your guy if you’re looking for a constant shadow or a snuggle buddy, but he’d be great for someone who just wants some easygoing company from a dog who’s perfectly happy doing his own thing. <br/>If he sounds like the pup for you email animalshelter@boston.gov or call 617-635-1800! <br/><br/>Adoption Application in our bio<br/>Adoption Hours: Mon-Fri 10am-3pm, Sat by appointment only<br/>26 Mahler Rd Roslindale See less
