Looking for a forever home; Vernon SPCA pet of the week

VERNON – This cat was surrendered to the Vernon SPCA when his senior owner could no longer take care of him.

Orlando is an indoor cat and would need to continue like this, according to a media release.

He is a little shy and it takes him a little while to get to know people. Once he does, he becomes very affectionate and playful.

This kitty would do best as an only cat as he tends to get bullied. He did get along fine with young, friendly female cats.

Orlando is not suitable for a home with dogs of any size.

His perfect home would be as an only cat in a quiet household.

For more information about Orlando contact the staff at the Vernon SPCA. His animal ID number is 461974.

Visit the shelter's webpage for more information such as location, adoption fees and hours of operation.
