Can We Be Friends?

Joseph's foster mom affectionately refers to him as "Buddy" - he's such a nice cat. He's laid back, and gets along with all the other critters at home. Buddy seems especially interested in the two adult female cats (he's not neutered yet, so that may be why) that live in the foster home. The girls, however, aren't quite sure what to make of him (I suspect they know he's not neutered...). He & Lucy could have been separated at birth...well, not really since she's 7 yrs and he's 2 yrs.

He likes to play with the foster's 10-week old kitten, as well. They've had a few good romps - they are both quite playful. And when "Buddy" has had enough of the tireless kitten, he just saunters over & sleeps on the bed.


They also like to eat together.



There is also a 4-week old bottle baby foster kitten at the house, and while she spends most of her time in her warm crate, when she's out to play, "Buddy" wants in on the action! He is quite curious about her and wants to chase! But she's all of one lb. so play isn't really allowed just yet. She looks an awful lot like the cat toys.

"Buddy" isn't phased by the foster's dog, either. In general, Joseph/Buddy is an all around laid back cat. He tolerates having his eyes wiped, his nails clipped, being brushed, vigorous pets and scratches, cuddling, and will make a great companion animal in his future forever home.
