Keanu is the missing link you’ve been searching for. He loves to cuddle and constantly wants to be touching you in some capacity, preferably on your chest or neck! He is super playful and loves to run around with his siblings, but he is just as content to curl up with you for an afternoon nap, and who doesn’t want a built-in heated scarf? Could this sweet guy be the newest member of your furever family? Visit Keanu at the Venango County Humane Society from noon to 5 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays.
