Notes from Brooklyn Bridge Animal Welfare Coalition, Inc.

Venom was deceptively named, as there is nothing venomous about this sweet tabby boy. (Given his propensity to sit on his bum like a little old man, we often call him lil’ Vinny).

Venom started out shy and nervous about his new surroundings, but never hissed or bit. We quickly learned he is motivated by Churu treats and chin scratches. He can still be a bit skittish around loud sounds (and he is deeply distrusting of our ceiling fan), but with time to explore he has now settled into life as a very cozy couch cat. Venom loves to spend his days napping in the sun, meowing at mealtime, annihilating his mouse toy, and requesting head rubs. He will gladly follow you all around the house just to hang out.

Venom is comfy around new adults, he would definitely be happy in a quiet, calm, and loving home.

This cat can be adopted with a friend or as a single cat.
