Pet of the Week: Boris Wants to Keep Your Kitty Company

If you are thinking about adding a pet to your family, please consider adopting from the Humane Society of Ocean City, a no-kill shelter recognized as one of the nation’s top ten animal shelters.

All of the animals are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and micro-chipped before adoption. All animals also receive an Alumni Card which entitles them to a 10% lifetime discount for veterinary services at the Humane Society of Ocean City clinic.

This week we met “Boris" the cat.

Here’s a little background info on Boris from the Humane Society of Ocean City…”Boris Is a shy sweet boy. He would be best in a house with other cats. He loves the company of other felines and would make a great friend for a lonely kitty or a great addition to a house of felines.

He is very sweet with people but slow to warm up. Boris should probably avoid a house with children because of his shy nature. A calm cat friendly dog may also be okay. Boris came to the shelter as part of our "trap neuter release" efforts,  but turned out to be too sweet to released.”
