Barnaby is a charming 5-year-old male cat who arrived at the shelter in February 2026 after living as a stray, and he's ready to trade his past for a cozy forever home. This friendly boy is a bit of a character with a gentle soul, though he might greet you with a hiss at first as he warms up to new faces. Don't let that fool you—he's just taking his time to trust, and once he does, he'll show his affectionate side by headbutting into you for attention. Barnaby is still getting used to being fussed over, so he might give a playful swipe when he's had enough, but it's all in good fun; he doesn't mean any harm and is simply learning to communicate his boundaries.
While at the shelter, Barnaby had some teeth extracted during a dental procedure. Unfortunately, his mouth became infected afterward, but he bravely completed a course of antibiotics and is now feeling much better, with a clean bill of health. He's looking for a quiet home where he can relax and thrive, away from the hustle and bustle of his stray days.
Barnaby has had a dental procedure with some teeth extracted, and he successfully recovered from a post-operative mouth infection with antibiotics. He is now in good health and requires no ongoing medical treatment, but regular veterinary check-ups are recommended as part of routine care.
Barnaby is available for adoption and can be viewed at the shelter. Interested adopters should contact the shelter directly to arrange a meeting and discuss the adoption process, ensuring they can provide the quiet, secure home he needs.
