When a volunteer began feeding the cat colony outside a local hot spot, she quickly noticed that the king of the colony, Rex, was a mild mannered and friendly cat who got along well with the other cats and was not the least bit feral. He was a poor stray desperately in need of a new, safe home. How could the feeder tell? Rex would approach and bonk his head against her hand, asking to be petted. When the feeder brought some toys, Rex instantly pounced and started playing. Rex now has a daily play session with a mouse on the end of a string. When it's feeding time he likes to weave in and out of his feeders' legs for attention, and as a gesture of thanks for the food . The feeder is able to pick him up and Rex is always the first out of the bushes to greet her. Rex is a sweetheart and while the feeder will be sad to see him go, Rex deserves a forever home safe indoors with someone to love him and keep him safe. We are unsure of Rex's age but we're guessing he's in the 2-5 yr old.
