From Santa Fe Animal Shelter and Humane Society

This is Whisp. He is about 12 years old and about 8 pounds. He has the cutest eyes and wispy whiskers that make him look wise! He’s a sweet fellow, see if he would be perfect for your home!These are some benefits for adopting an elder cat:1. They have an established personalityWhen you get a kitten, you don’t quite know what sort of character they’ll grow up to have. Their personality is likely to change a lot in their first few years of life. When you adopt a mature elder you’ll have a better idea of what to expect from your new cat companion.2. They’ll be a calming companionAn older cat is likely to be a lot calmer, and happier to spend more time snoozing and cuddling up with you.3. They may be more suited to a busy lifestyleIf you’re out of the house for long periods of the day, or busy getting things done around the home, an older cat might be a better option. Although they’ll still want some attention from time to time, they’re also likely to happily snooze while you get on with your tasks.4. They can still be funOlder cats will usually still love to have regular short play sessions if you find the toys they like. Fishing rod toys are often a favourite!…
