It's My Turn!
Billy has been waiting for almost 3 years and he is ready to begin a new life in his forever home.
Hi! I’m Billy. I’m only 4 years old, but I feel like I’m much older because I’ve been waiting for my forever home for almost 3 years. I was just a young guy when I came here. I’ve watched so many other kitties come and go to their forever homes that I can’t help but wonder…when is it going to be my turn?
I try to stay positive but I think it’s my shyness that has gotten in the way of me finding a new family. That, and the fact that I’m a black kitty. We just seem to get overlooked amongst the more colorful coats.
I just need patience and a gentle touch. Go slow with me and I will warm up to you. Kindness will go a long way in winning my affection.

You might think that my shyness would make me afraid of other animals like dogs. But I actually love dogs! Do you have dogs? I would love to meet them! I guarantee that I can teach them some new tricks. I’m a great hunter - I hold the record for catching that pesky laser dot and I grab those feather toys out of the air before anyone else can get to them. I’m sure your dogs would love to learn from me. And I’d love to be their new best buddy.
So what do you say? Please just take me home and give me a chance and I will show you that I’ll make a great addition to your family. Yes, it’s my turn now!
