Cheddar

Cheddar

My name is Cheddar and I came to the shelter as a stray in December 2009, along with my 2 other siblings. I am a 6 month old male. I am a little on the shy side and need a home with someone who is willing to work with me. All we need is a little love and patience and I'll come around in no time! Since being here at the shelter, I've been getting socialized quite a bit and I have come a long ways! Out of my litter, I am the most friendly and outgoing.
After the shelter people worked with me quite a bit, I started to enjoy being held. Now, all you have to do is just look at me and I start purring!
