My story

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

My owner is sick with terminal cancer and is no longer able to care for me like he used to. Though I am 13 years old, I am affectionate, talkative, and playful at times. I love to be brushed and sometimes just like some quiet time to myself. I am also silly at times as I like to drink water from faucets, so when you are doing dishes or washing your hands, I just might join you.

I have spent my life as an indoor cat and have never been around other cats, dogs, or children, so I would prefer to be your only pet. I will miss my owner terribly, but hope to find a loving home with someone that I can share my snuggles with. I also hope that my new owner would be willing to share a picture of me from time to time so that my dad will know that I am safe and being well cared for.
