🐾 Meet Herman! 🖤✨
This adorable 5-month-old black kitten is as sweet as he is shy. Herman is still learning to trust people, but with a little patience (and a few tasty treats!), he’ll show you his gentle, loving personality. 💕

He loves wand toys, cozy beds, and other feline friends who help him feel safe and confident. Herman would thrive in a calm, quiet home with humans who can give him the time and love he deserves. 🐱💫

If you’ve been looking for a playful, affectionate kitten ready to blossom into your best friend, come meet Herman at Gulf Coast Humane Society! 💙

If you’d like to help, both peanut butter and dog treats are on our Amazon Wishlist 🛒💛

🎃 Halloween Pet Safety Tips! 👻
Halloween can be a fun night for humans — but it can be tricky for our furry friends! Here are a few ways to keep pets safe this spooky season:

🐾 No candy for pets – Especially chocolate and anything containing xylitol (found in sugar-free treats).
🚪 Keep pets indoors – Doorbells, costumes, and strangers can be scary!
🎭 Costumes are optional – Only dress pets up if they’re comfortable and can move freely.
🕯️ Watch decorations – Keep candles, wires, and fake cobwebs out of reach.
📍 Check ID tags and microchips – Make sure they’re up to date, just in case your pet slips out the door.

A little preparation helps ensure everyone has a paw-sitively safe and happy Halloween! 🧡🐶🐱
