Notes from Siberian Husky Rescue of New Mexico, Inc.

Meet Cato, an 8-year-old Husky/Malamute mix who is hoping that his next home will finally be his forever home.

Cato has already had three homes in his lifetime, and through no fault of his own, he is facing another transition. His current family originally found him wandering the neighborhood after his elderly owner was no longer able to care for him. They opened their home to him and gave him a safe place to land, but their family situation has now changed, and they can no longer give Cato the time and attention he deserves.

At 8 years old, Cato has been through enough changes. He doesn’t need another temporary stop—he needs the family who will love him and keep him for the rest of his life. ❤️ Cato is a sweet senior gentleman who enjoys having his people around. He is frightened by fireworks and thunderstorms, so he’ll need a family who will be patient and reassuring when those scary noises come around. He has lived successfully with two cats and was wonderful with them. When it comes to other dogs, Cato can be hit or miss, so a meet-and-greet is recommended with any potential canine siblings.

Cato is around 70 pounds and will do best with someone who is comfortable handling a strong, larger dog. But more than anything, he needs stability, patience, love, and a family who won’t give up on him.

Cato needs a foster or, better yet, his forever family.

Three homes is more than enough. Let’s make sure Cato’s next home is the one where he can finally unpack his bags, settle in, and know he is home for good. ❤️

If you can give Cato the loving, permanent home he deserves, please contact Siberian Husky Rescue of New Mexico. And if you can’t adopt, please share his story. His forever family may be just one share away.
