Barney

My story

Barney is an affectionate 4-year-old black cat with soft, medium-length fur and the sweetest heart you’ll ever meet. He loves people and cuddles, and he’s gentle and friendly with other cats. He’s also an excellent jumper and enjoys exploring new places whenever he gets the chance. Barney used to live in North Carolina, but when his family moved away, they left him behind. Kind neighbors later found him skinny and scared. Even after such a rough experience, Barney has remained trusting and loving toward people. The moment you say his name, he’ll come running, roll onto his back, and ask for pets. He purrs like a little machine when he gets belly rubs and chin scratches! He’s also very easy to care for—he lets you trim his nails, clean up his fur, and even give him a bath without any fuss. Barney gets along well with other cats, too. He politely waits for the others to eat first during mealtimes and stays calm even when another cat is playfully batting at his tail. When it’s cuddle time, if another cat swats at him for attention, Barney simply steps back, waits patiently, and then comes right back for more love. Now Barney is ready to find a forever home where he can cuddle in someone’s lap and be loved every day. If you’re looking for a gentle, sweet companion who will greet you with happy purrs and soft snuggles, Barney is waiting to meet you! This cat's adoption fee is $200. If you are viewing on Petfinder and cannot see photos or would like to apply for this cat, please visit our website www.frecklesfoundation.org. ***Please note that the first step in the process is to complete our nonbinding application which does not commit you in any way, but allows us to help you to find a great match. Our application review process also includes a veterinary reference check. Vetting of current and past pets is very important to us, thus we will be speaking with the vet(s) listed on your application to ensure that your current and previous pet(s) are kept up to date on vaccines (including rabies), spayed or neutered, maintained on appropriate monthly preventatives (if applicable) and examined annually by your vet.*** Cats adopted through Freckles Foundation & Animal Rescue must be indoor only and may not be declawed unless already declawed at time of rescue

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Barney, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
