Age: 2 to 4 years

Organization: Mohawk Hudson Humane Society, Menands
About: Burdock is a sweet, cuddly dude who knows his limits. He is a slow blink pro and he likes people but he will let you know when he’s had enough. Because of that, he is probably not right for a home with small humans and would most likely succeed in a home that has an understanding of cat behavior that can give him all the snuggles and also space when he needs and wants it.
Adoption Details: Burdock is up for adoption at the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society, open Monday through Saturday from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. Adoption fees and requirements can be found on the shelter’s website at mohawkhumane.org.
