In the shelter’s words

Here's what Buddy's owner has to say about him! Buddy Bio This is Buddy. He is 5 years old. I rescued from an outside blizzard where I heard a very loud kitten screaming. He was scared, cold and starving. He seemed to have been feral at the time with no human contact cuz he was scared to death of people. I had to live trap him to save him the cold. Buddy has came a long way since. He now is learning to more social and trust people. He loves other cats! He is very insecure but another cat makes him feel secure. He is very smart and a pretty big guy. His markings and size remind of a Savannah or a Bengal cat. He is beautiful. He knows his name and will blink at you slowly when you talk to him. He knows the word “bedtime” and will run upon the bed and really open up to being petted at bedtime and even meows for attention at bedtime until you pet him. He loves to eat and will also sit on command for a treat. He is very submissive to other cats. He has only been accepted by a few of the 7 cat household he lives in now. He headbuts with hugs them and rubs all over them. He would thrive in a quiet patient home with another cat to make him feel secure. She is super sweet boy that is slowly coming out of his shell but can tell he wants to trust. He as well has struggled in a 7 cat household and get chased and “put into his place” by the more dominate males. He deserves a quiet and patient home where he can relax and just be a cat with another cat as a friend. He absolutely loves his cat tree where he can relax alone and not be bothered by the other cats.! He loves to watch the birds outside too. He does fear being outside. This guy has a lot of potential to be very lovable cat without so many other cats keeping him on edge. He craves attentions and love but is outnumbered and out ranked in the house. He gets pushed off to the side as the other cats come in for attention and he will submiss to them. Handsome Buddy is neutered and tested negative for FIV and feline leukemia. Buddy is not a Rose's Rescue cat, we are posting him in order to help his owner find him a new home. He is located in the Mogadore 44260 area. His adoption fee will be $50. Please TEXT ONLY Tammy at 330-730-9756 or email her at tamking1@netzero.net for more information about Buddy.
