My story

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

 

 

Meet Nemo

My name is Nemo, and I consider myself a pretty cool guy—but lately, I have been feeling a bit down. I have spent my whole life in the shelter, patiently waiting for the perfect home that I know is out there for me.

 

My Dream

I often dream of sitting beside my human companion, purring contentedly. My purring has a unique sound, almost like Darth Vader, but do not mistake my breathing for a hiss—I promise it is just my way of showing happiness!

 

My Personality

I am gentle, easygoing, and get along peacefully with my 20+ roommates here at the shelter. Still, I would love nothing more than a quiet home where someone can appreciate my adorable, stocky appearance.

 

What I Offer

While I may not be a lap cat, I will always sit right next to you and enjoy being petted. If you give me a chance, I will make sure to smile for your Christmas card photo, hoping to bring joy to your home as much as you will bring to mine.

More about this rescue

The Animal Refuge Center (ARC) of Fort Myers is a not for profit animal welfare society dedicated to stopping the escalating cost to impound, care for, kill and dispose of dogs and cats dying for no reason other than having been born. ARC is helping to cut the large numbers of homeless animals which eventually cuts the costs to taxpayers, which to date has reached over half a million dollars a year.

ARC is a non-euthanasia organization. Once we accept an animal for adoption, IT WILL NOT BE DESTROYED TO MAKE ROOM FOR ANOTHER. We are here to help the unwanted and neglected animals who now face certain death.
