Description:

Meet Cato!

Cato’s ideal home will be with a female and low key. A secure fenced yard is a must. No small children.

Cato is doing okay, but is timid and shy.

He is afraid of male foster and watches him closely. He growls and cowers in his presence, but he does not snap at him or try to bite.

Cato is house-trained. He has had no accidents in our home.
Cato is crate trained and will enter voluntarily. He mostly sleeps through the night and is timid coming out of the crate.

Cato is not a chewer or digger. He is not fond of cold weather. He walks with female foster with a coat on, but he walks behind her and not beside her. If spooked, he will try and back out of his harness. He wears a Martingale and is double leashed during walks. He will bark at our neighbor dog. He is content to lie close to female foster during the evening or on the couch by himself while she's away at work.

Cato is a ladies man!

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.

Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS. We do not transport to potential adopters.

How to learn more about a pet: Complete the application (click on the button above) to start our process for adopting or fostering a MARS Pet.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
