Meet Beans - The Sun Chasing Sweetheart with an Independent Soul

Beans is an outdoor-loving cat, just over a year old, who prefers life at his own pace. He’s not a fan of being picked up or held, but he loves gentle pets, especially when offered with a little space and a lot of kindness. If you take the time to earn his trust, you’ll find a quiet, soft-hearted friend who appreciates affection on his terms.

Beans is all about the simple pleasures: warm sunbeams, soft grass, a peaceful place to nap, and the occasional slow blink from someone who understands him. He’s incredibly sweet if approached gently and enjoys the outdoors while still having someone nearby who’s happy to say “I love you” with a soft scratch behind the ears.

He has some food sensitivities and is thriving eating Purina One Sensitive Skin and Stomach food; we recommend keeping him on a sensitive stomach diet to keep him at his best.

If you’re looking for a low maintenance indoor-outdoor companion who’s more about quiet connection than cuddles, Beans is your guy.

All pets arrive spayed/neutered, dewormed, microchipped and vaccinated. Adoption fee for Beans is a suggested minimum of $50 (more gratefully accepted). All pets are placed with a 30-day money-back trial period, to give pet and family enough time to discover any unknown allergies or other conflicts.

Can't come to Republic? Don't let that stop you! We have monthly transports to the Seattle area, delivering adopted pets to their new owners. If you can add a little to your donation to help us cover our volunteer driver's expenses, that would be great!
