November is Adopt a Senior Pet Month, and in cat adoptions at the Yolo County Animal Shelter there are several sweet seniors waiting for you.
Princess, a 10-year-old tri-tabby with white, and Buddy, an 8-year-old handsome tuxedo boy, came to the shelter when their owner died. Their lives have been turned upside down and they only want what they had before … a loving home with a sunny spot just their own. They do not have to be adopted together.
Pumpkin, a calico mix, and Annie, a tortie, both 5 years old, love, love, love holding and petting. Adopt one of these beautiful girls and they will reward you with loyalty and love for many years.
And last, but by no means least, are four of the most handsome, most affectionate boys you will ever meet. Offer Blue, a 6-year-old blue point Himalayan, your hand and he will not stop rubbing and rolling over. He lives for attention. Daniel, a 5-year-old tabby, and SixToes, a 6-year-old tabby polydactyl, are big boys who love a lap. While they do enjoy batting around the occasional ping pong ball, they are most focused on the comfy life — laps, treats, petting and a soft bed.
Gary, an orange tabby, is only 2 years old but he, too, appreciates a quiet lap with lots of attention.
