My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi- I'm DIEGO! Great to meet you! I'm one of the "Miraculous 8" group lucky enough to have been rescued by the good people at A4A Rescue. I was living in tough conditions with 30+ cats and 20+ dogs in one house--- and no one was spayed/neutered or had any medical care-- not to mention I was covered with lice, fleas and I had worms. Yuck! We hardly ever had access to food or water, it was a very sad situation. And because of the lack of nutrition (or lack of food at all I should say!) and the stress I was under- my hair started falling out. BUT...the happy ending is that I was rescued by A4A Rescue- along with 7 others- many of whom were blind due to lack of treatment for year and years of untreated eye infections. I am one of the lucky few of this group to have kept my eye sight. (A4A helped find rescue for ALL other pets in our situation too- with other rescue groups in the mid-west-- so everyone is safe now!). My beautiful, shinny black short hair is growing back very nicely now (b/c I'm not stressed at all and I get LOTS of good nutrition, vet care and love/attention in my A4A foster home). I LOVE, love, love to play and I am a petite little guy. I would do very well in a home with another cat who likes to play or with a kitten. I like dogs and other cats- I really like every one who is kind. I'm full of personality and spunk. I like to be petted and sit with you too. I am approx. 6 months young as of July 1 (2011). I am now neutered, UTD on vaccinations, tested negative for both FIV and FeLv and I am housetrained/litterbox trained. I am very neat and tidy! I love the indoor life too! I have also been treated for the prevention of ear mites, fleas, worms, lice and heart worm- and I am totally healthy now!


I'm ready to find my forever home and love you forever! I sure can't wait to meet you!
