Meet Joey

Hi, my name is Joey! I'm a RED pawprint, which means I need an experienced home that meets some specific criteria. Here is what would work best for me in my new home:

-Personality: Active, playful, energetic, sweet and sassy
-Can Live with Cats: Unknown history - will need proper introductions to ensure everyone gets along. Would do best with another YOUNG and ENERGETIC cat. Not a good match for shy or senior kitties.
-Can Live with Dogs: Unknown history, but likely yes pending a proper introduction
-Can Live with Kids: No, Joey will need an adult only home
-Needs Indoor Only Home: No - may benefit from responsible outdoor time
-History of Litter Box Issues: No
-Energy Level: HIGH!
-Bite History: Yes, ask staff for more details
-Needs Medical Procedure Before Going Home: No
Additional Information:
Joey is a misunderstood kitty looking for someone with cat experience and a little bit of patience. He was surrendered to the shelter due to biting and acting out in his previous home - this sort of behavior is common when cats aren't properly socialized with other cats when they are young (it's called singleton kitten syndrome and it's why we have a "two kitten policy"!). Joey is a young and active kitty who understandably gets bored when he's not given appropriate outlets for his energy, which in turn leads to him acting out. We think Joey would benefit from having a playful and tolerant companion - ie. a young/active dog or cat - to play with in his new home. He may also benefit from some responsible outdoor time (ie. in a catio, on a harness, etc.). Joey is a super sweet boy who enjoys affection - he just needs someone willing to give him a chance.

If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website (www.whatcomhumane.org/adopt) or in person at our facility. We recommend calling into the shelter after your application has been submitted so our front desk can give you next steps on our adoption process.
