Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Sweet and loving Dr. Dexter was found abandoned in a South Elgin home in November 2013 with another cat, where they had been living unattended for three weeks. He was very frightened, and it took 24 hours to find him! Eventually he was found hiding behind a disconnected furnace, cold and very scared. Dr. Dexter and his friend were taken in and fostered by a Good Samaritan for ten months, during which he warmed up nicely and showed himself to be a curious, playful, and vocal love bug! He just loves attention and play time, so be sure to give this great cat some much needed affection! When rescued, both cats were front declawed.
