Meet Capybara!

Capybara – the internet’s favorite animal. Well, our Capybara doesn’t exactly look like he is part Capybara. This sweet boy came to Animal Friends as part of a mass surrender of 55 cats. These cats became known as our ‘C-Cats’ as they were all given names starting with the letter ‘C.’

These kitties were very unsure of their surroundings upon their arrival. With time, they have become more comfortable with the staff and volunteers. Capybara is just one of these cats who have come out of their shell quite a bit. He is quite food-motivated and enjoys exploring his room. He would do best in a home with no dogs. Could he be the kitty for you?

Please read our adoption guidelines and start your application before coming to meet one of our animals in person. A typical adoption can take up to an hour. Please visit at least one hour before closing if you plan to adopt that day.
