Hello Lovely Hoomans, I`m Basil, a beautiful 12 year old grey and white short-haired guy with an adorable pink nose and matching nose freckles!I love to be brushed and give gentle head butts. Cat research shows that both of these traits reveal I am a trusting, loving soul who wants to be near humans! So, if you want a gentle, easy-going boy, that`s me! I`m just 12 years old – plenty of healthy years left as you can see by my mesmerizing green eyes and alert ears! I do need to be in a home where I can give and receive lots of affection, so a single person working away from home all the time would be hard on me. On the other hand, folks working from home who can give me time, and anyone who has kids, would be great. Better yet- also adopt one of my cat buddies, such as Otter or Jackson, who are also at the shelter. I get along great with both of them. I am diabetic but please don`t let that deter you! I need twice/ daily insulin shots with a very small needle. This does not hurt me (easily goes into my scruff) and is either given immediately after I eat or while I`m eating. I make it easy because I`m very food motivated! Our vet staff will show you how to give insulin. In fact, one of my human friends, who is 76 years old, easily gives insulin to her cat. Won`t you please visit me... and maybe even brush me, tee-hee. I`ll be waiting for you! One more thing - check out the picture of me IN A HARNESS! The volunteers are letting me walk around the shelter safely in a harness and I love it! They say I`m harness trained but really, I trained them to walk me!If you think I would be a good fit for your home, please come to the shelter to meet me! The shelter hours are Sunday - Monday, & Wednesday - Saturday (Closed Tuesday) 9:30 - 4:30, Closed 12:00 - 1:00 for lunch.
If you have any questions or would like to adopt Basil (Pending Application!), please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
