Adoptable pet of the week: Gumdrop

Posted: 3:29 am, May 2, 2016 by Editor Skye Pratt

–This week’s edition of North County Adoptable Pet of the Week features fluffy black cat Gumdrop.

Gumdrop is a long haired black male cat who recently arrived at North County Humane Society. He is a little over a year old, and was raised inside since he was a kitten. His owner recently lost her home and could not take him along when she moved.

Gumdrop is a little shy at NCHS as he is not used to being around so many other cats. But he is friendly, enjoys being held and will be more relaxed at a new home. His previous owner says he is good around dogs. He really is a handsome cat with very soft fur and spectacular golden eyes.

Gumdrop has been neutered, vaccinated and microchipped, and he is ready to go home with his new family today.

NCHS has many cats available for adoption; they can be viewed on the website at www.slonchs.org. Potential pet parents are encouraged to visit NCHS to find the right cat for their family.

The North County Humane Society is located in Atascadero, just off of Highway 101 by the Del Rio Road exit, at 2300 Ramona Rd. They are open Tuesday through Saturday 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. More information is available on the website, or call NCHS at (805) 466-5403.
