Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi there, I’m Scooter. My mom, Serenity was rescued after a very bad snowstorm when she was pregnant with my brother, sisters and me. That was a relief, because I’ve heard little kittens don’t do well in the freezing cold. Instead, we were born in a warm, cozy room setup just for us! I guess you could say we were very lucky; we live the life of luxury!
Although our rescue came just in time, it wasn’t all smooth sailing for me though. I developed a condition called Flat Chested Kitten Syndrome. My foster mom took me to the vet and he gave me the treatments that I needed. Since I’m such a strong, tough guy, I pulled through with flying colors. You should see me run, jump and chase things now. I’m faster than any of my litter mates! You’d never know anything was ever wrong with me, because I’m perfect now!
I do have an off switch though. All it takes is a rub here or a pet there and I’ll melt in your hands. I may be athletic, but at heart, I’m a big softie that loves cuddle time. My motto is play fast, purr hard and live life to the fullest! I hope to find a family that will love every bit of me!
If you'd like to meet me, please email cats@henricohumane.org to setup a visit. Don't forget to tell them you want to meet Scooter!
