Happily Homed: White Basil (Aster)

We have an #adoptionupdate from Pornnatcha who adopted Aster (now White Basil) this past May! Pornnatcha visited the shelter about twice a week to play with all the cats without a specific cat in mind to adopt, until they saw Aster on our Cat Care Society website. He was just so cute that they fell in love.

“Everything goes well. He is adaptable and playful. Everything is normal. He likes playing with humans more than playing with all the toys that we have for him. A little sneeze happened after three days of adoption but getting better right now. He is playful and needs everyone’s attention. Eating a lot and drinking a lot as well. Thank you for this wonderful angel!!!”

Have you adopted from CCS in the past? We’d love to hear how it’s going! Send us your adoption success stories (and photos!) to be featured in our #adoptionupdate series on social media or on our website.
