Notes from Until They're Home

Monkey Boy is an older man, but he has so much love left to give. He’s not big on sitting in laps, but he is happy to let you pet him as much as you want. He has an adorable underbite and gorgeous green eyes. MB was always interested in playing with string toys, Old Arthur (arthritis) was limiting his fun. The vet found a treatment for him that has been very effective and now he’s enjoying lots more playtime. He has excellent manners, never knocking over anything in his foster home. He enjoys pate, but isn’t a big fan of wet food with chunks. This wonderful gentleman would likely adjust to any circumstances, but he would probably appreciate a slower paced home that would provide him with a little, daily, playtime. He has had a private room in his foster home so his comfort level with other animals is undetermined, but he has such a sweet demeanor it seems possible he could adjust to other pets and/or children. Don’t let his advanced years put you off, he’s a really great guy.
