Pet of the Week: Don't Lose Billy's Number

Here's a cuddly kitty looking for a new home.

Billy is a super-affectionate and absolutely awesome 3-year-old neutered male cat who was found in Dorchester. When he arrived at the shelter, he had a wounded tail which required amputation. Billy was a great patient during his recovery, and now, he is ready for a new home.

Billy loves the company of other felines, though canines he would prefer to be without. He is very relaxed and loves attention. He'll stop, drop and roll over for a nice long chest scratch. He is content to be held and truly enjoys petting, brushing, playing, and just hanging out. Billy has a very minor medical concern and has been looking for the right family to just give him a chance.
