Boomer Marshall, domestic shorthair mix
Boomer Marshall is a male domestic shorthair mix staying at PAWS (Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society).
He has all of his shots, and he's been neutered.
There's no information on Boomer Marshall's profile about how he does with children or other animals, so it's worth asking PAWS directly. Boomer is a special needs pet, so please inquire about his specific care requirements.
From Boomer Marshall's caretaker:
Meet Boomer Marshall, he is a sweet energetic cat that loves to cuddle and hunt hair ties but also likes to lay on a couch by himself. Boomer is a loving cat who is very curious of the space he is in! He likes to explore and sniff different surfaces in order to find out what the best places are to lay in or hide in. He likes to be petted and being around people, if you have a visitor it is likely he will hide for a little bit but he will come out of hiding after a little in order to meet them. At first he will be nervous and scared but once he's use to a place and person he is willing to go up to them and allow them to pet him.

Mista Whiskas is a high energy sandy, orange boy who loves to play, cuddle, and meow Hello! Mista Whiskas likes to cuddle in the evenings and mornings with his foster brother and human, but as soon as you are up, he would like to start playing! His favorite games are chasing, string catching, mouse hunting and most amazingly... fetch! He can also play by himself easily entertaining himself playing with a toy and throwing it around for himself. He likes to tell you how he feels and will communicate through meowing when he is happy playing or when he wants to play more. He also likes to greet you when you come home with a Hello. Sometimes, he meows very quietly when cuddling.
