Look who has their eyes on the prize… it’s Bagheera, our Pet of the Week!

This young boy was brought in by a good Samaritan in early August. Bagheera likes to think he’s a panther – because he looks just like one! But that’s all just appearances, though, because Bagheera is actually a gentle and loving cat who likes to take things slow. So, he’s one of our “Bashful Blue” pets – one that would do best in a nice quiet home. He may get nervous in new situations, so he’s looking for a family that understands he might need some time to warm up. Bagheera also likes to receive affection on his own terms – but once he gets to know you, he will be a very devoted friend!

Bagheera is litterbox trained, neutered, current on vaccinations, and microchipped. As Pet of the Week, his adoption fee is waived, though a pet license fee may still apply. His adoption comes with a free visit to the veterinarian of your choice and 30 days of opt-in pet insurance through Trupanion.

Pet licenses help in so many ways. Not only do the fees go toward helping animals at the Pet Adoption Center, licensed pets also get a Free Ride Home should they ever get lost, Vacation Pet Alert, and much more! Visit our licensing page for details.
