Bubba may be shy or timid at first, but with time, patience and love, he becomes quite cuddly. He loves to play with toys – especially crinkle balls – and he gets along really well with other cats. Bubba is OK with dogs as long as they don’t chase him or get in his face. Bubba also has lived with children. Bubba loves to burrow into arms at night for snuggling and purring sessions and follows his foster mom at times, meowing for attention. To meet Bubba, visit ForgetMeNotRescue.com/adoptables.
