Barry’s a life-of-the-party kitten who enjoys a play-filled life and someone to cuddle with when he’s tired. Barry had that, at first, when he and his littermates came to the shelter. However, one by one, Barry’s beloved siblings and playmates were carried out of the Shelter’s cat room. Life became boring and lonely.

So, Barry was happy when the shelter staff came to see him early on July 8. He was ready for an adventure. It began well, with his first long car ride. Then the friendly kitten met new people, in scrubs. Then Barry went to sleep.

When Barry woke up, he wasn’t as happy. He’d been neutered. However, Barry will forget that quickly, if it leads to joining a loving human family forever.
