Babadook is Your Rancho Coastal Humane Society Pet This Week

He likes cats.

Babadook is a 7-month-old, 7-pound, male, Domestic Short Hair cat with Black and White coat.

A good Samaritan found Babadook in their back yard in Riverside County. They took him to a local shelter. After that he was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society through Friends of County Animal Shelters (FOCAS.)

At the other shelter, he lived in a group room with other male cats. He got along well with all of them.

When Babadook meets people, he sometimes hides. Once he feels comfortable, he’s very social and he warms up quickly.

He could probably live with kids as young as eight. He loves playing with a wand toy and Babadook likes to be handled.
