My story

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

Appx. DOB: 11/19/2010 Linus is an adorable, quiet, well behaved, loving boy. He went through a terrible ordeal when picked up by animal control. He was in there a week and had lived huddled up in a corner on a grated drain in a concrete kennel. He had no bed and nothing to lay on or sleep in. He was shaking when they brought him in and was still trembling terribly when we picked him up a week later. He had barely moved from his corner. Linus now loves squeak toys and will chase and/or carry around in his mouth for a long time. He walks well on the leash and lead the way home when he has had enough of a walk. He loves his crate and will go into it by himself when he feels the need of alone time. Most of the time, though, he wants to be with his people. Anyone getting Linus will consider themselves very lucky. Update on Linus: Linus ended up having an old injury on his hip and required surgery called FHO. He is recovering nicely and is enjoying quiet time in his foster home with 4 kitty foster brothers. Linus is ready to find his forever home and become a snuggle boy to his new family
