Winkey's Info...
| Breed: | Domestic Longhair | Color: | Orange Or Red | Age: | Adult |
| Sex: | Male | Hair: | Unknown |
I am already neutered, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with cats.
Winkey, born in 2003, is a very friendly, active, fluffy boy. He enjoys sitting in laps, and is particularly fond of children and teenagers. If he meets someone whom he likes especially, he will demand to be picked up and carried around the shelter (very unusual for a cat!).
Winkey cannot see clearly, as a result of cataracts and birth deformities in his eyes. But his vision problems don't slow him down. He usually cruises the entire shelter, but typically settles in the Purple Room for naps and night time.
Winkey is a real 'alpha male' and does not hesitate to confront other male cats, even those who are much larger than he is. He would be best suited to a home with no other animals.

Shelter Info...
As of March 1st, Animal Rescue and Adoption Society will be doing business as Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue to better reflect our mission and the population that we serve.
The ARAS Mission: ARAS is a no-kill cat shelter dedicated to preventing cruelty to animals, and providing a safe shelter and a second chance for homeless cats and kittens. Through outreach programs and community referrals, ARAS seeks to educate the public by providing current information regarding other rescue organizations and services when ARAS is unable to accommodate the animal in need.
ARAS is committed to helping animals in need of safe environments and people in need of solutions.
Established in 1982, the Animal Rescue and Adoption Society is a non-profit, no-kill cat shelter located in Denver, Colorado. Society staff and volunteers care for approximately 185 homeless and abandoned cats.
