Duke the 5-year-old retired Tom cat is ready to start a new chapter of his life with a family of his own. He spent most of his life outside as the neighborhood Tom cat by the north Anchorage Costco. Caring neighbors were letting him come inside to warm up and eat as he pleased. One day he showed up to one of these houses with a terrible injury and we became involved. Poor Duke had a bad hernia that had been cut open. He was taken to the vet immediately and had surgery to get him better. It’s taken a while for the pain to subside and he doesn’t like when anyone touches around that area.
Despite his rough past, Duke is doing great learning how to become a family cat again. In his foster home, he has discovered that he loves to play! His favorite toys are his squeaky mouse and catnip fish. If you would want to play with him, that could be fun. But he doesn't require entertainment. He’s great at doing his own thing, but will come running when called. And he does have a special weakness for wet food; give him some and he will be your best friend. He enjoys having other cats around, but is not a fan of dogs. He’s very kind towards the toddler in his foster home and loving to the adults.
Duke has lived most of his life outside and still wants to be able to go out in nice weather and enjoy the lovely natural world. But having a real home and family where he has some personal space and have outside too would be his ultimate dream. He needs someone who can be patient with him while he’s still learning his new routine and trusting that you will love him forever. If your interested in this big beautiful boy, please call 907-980-8898 He's in Wasilla.
