EEYORE - 1-5 years old, 60 pounds, friendly when he knows you, extremely affectionate when he knows you, very nervous upon meeting strangers. No kids.

Eeyore's name totally fits him! He is a bit reserved and overwhelmed here at the Virginia Beach Animal Care and Adoption Center. I had only seen him through the bars of his cage and he would stare back at me. I knew he wasn't comfortable with me and that was reinforced by the sign on his cage which read, GO SLOW.  One of the caretakers he has warmed up to had him outside so I decided to meet him out in the yard. He was hesitant to approach me, as I expected, but my treat to him trumped his nervousness and he took the treat from me. He then retreated back to Loni as clearly he was comfortable with her.  He even, as you can see from the photo, put his paws up on her for some love and affection. Eeyore is a friendly boy... when he knows you. He is seeking an adult only family who will allow him time to adapt to his new surroundings and provide slow introductions with new people. He is slowly warming up to more people so this will happen, but it will have to happen on his time, not yours. In fact, several introductions might be a good idea to get to see a more accurate personality from him. We are recommending no children. Call VBACAC at 757-385-4444 to make an appointment to meet him!
