In the shelter’s words

Meet BashfulHeart Bear, also known as Buff Buff like his twin brother, Funshine Bear. He loves to give hugs where he gets next to you, puts his paws on your shoulder, and leans his head into your neck/face.... and then rubs his nose all over you. He loves to give head butts... so be prepared to have him walk along the back of the couch and head butt you. He enjoys sleeping on the bed with and without you. If you lean over to pick something up - he feels it is fair game and a welcome to jump on your back while he tries to head butt whatever part of your head he can reach at that moment. Him and his brother are high energy furballs, that keep each other busy until they are ready to demand attention from their minions (i.e. us humans). Cat trees, high places to climb, interactive toys, lots of toys are needed to keep them happy. Was born with a congenital defect of both eyelids known as Eyelid agenesis, in which typically the upper lateral eyelid is not formed. His eyes do need to be wiped daily as the fur can irritate his eyes but it's 100% manageable. Kids over 6 recommended as he can be a bit rambunctious and knock kids over. He has almost tripped/knocked us over. He is a decent size kitty like his twin. He is okay with small to medium size dogs with slow introduction. He can be extremely rough playing with other kitties. If you are not the kind of person who loves a kitty that is constantly in your bubble, your face, on your bed, in your lap, on your shoulder, reaching out to touch you, and may even jump on your back when you are bent over... BashfulHeart Bear is NOT the right kitty for you. He is neutered, vaccinated, chipped and tested. His estimated birthdate is 3/19/2020 and his adoption fee is $140.
