Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Bocelli is cute and fun and affectionate. He's completely blind, but can find his way around just about anyplace with ease. He lived outside for at least a year and needs an indoor/outdoor home with a fenced yard. Please note: We will not put him in a "strictly indoor" home.
Purrsonal Information Age: I've lost track of time, and I'm not sure. The vet says I'm three, but I don't think I'm that old! Likes: Outdoors, people, cats, playing with toys that make noise so I can find them. Dislikes Well, I certainly didn't like being in a cage in that scary shelter. I'm really glad to be out of there! Health Concerns: Blind, chronic runny nose, hernia in stomach that may resolve in time. Ideal Home: Indoor/outdoor with a fenced yard. I'd like to live with a human who loves to cuddle and another friendly indoor/outdoor cat.
Bocelli's Story
"I was born in my human family's back yard and lived both indoors and outdoors with my mother and litter mates. We were having lots of fun until my litter mates got sick and went away. The woman and kids who lived there loved us, but the man hated us. Really hated us. One day he stuffed me into a box, drove somewhere and tossed the box out of the car. When I managed to get out of the box, I discovered I was in the middle of a huge industrial park. It was busy and noisy, but I managed to make it my home, and humans always gave me food.
"Then one day, someone packed me into another box and took me to a shelter where they... well, never mind. It's too horrible to think about. I'm safe in the Howard County Cat Club's group home now, and I'm having a great time. The volunteers love me and let me ride around on their shoulders, and the other cats are great. I'm friends with all of them.
"I'm happy now and having a good time, but I'd love to have my own home and people again. If you're looking for a fun cat who will love you forever, I hope we can meet. Just contact the Howard County Cat Club to arrange an introduction."
