Sit with Bubba for a few minutes and he will begin to remind you of your old grandpa.

Bubba is twelve years old. He has neuropathy in his legs and just like grandpa it takes him awhile to get where he is going. If he could talk he would have a thousand stories to tell you about when he was a youngster; but, he will probably forget which one he told you and tell you again.

Bubba is an endearing golden senior feline. His needs are simple. He needs an easy chair to sit in, a warm blanket, and someone to listen to his stories.
