Meiko, a 2-year-old cat who was once a gift, has been surrendered to a Broward County shelter after his owner could no longer afford to care for him. The shelter hopes he will find a second home where he can receive stability and love.

Meiko is described as a sweet boy with a friendly nature that is impossible to miss. He does not demand constant attention but enjoys pets and head rubs, and he shows contentment by rolling around. He often climbs into the arms of shelter volunteers to stay close to them. Meiko loves toys and treats, and a tube of Churu can quickly win his affection. He gets along well with adults and older people who appreciate his warm nature. He has never lived with other pets, so his feelings about feline or canine roommates are still unknown.

Those interested in adopting Meiko can complete a pre-adoption application online. The Humane Society of Broward County is located at 2070 Griffin Road, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33312, and the shelter opens daily at 11 a.m. For questions, call 954-989-3977.
