My story

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

Hi, my name is Vinnie!

In November of 2023, I tried to break into the lobby of the Bavarian Inn Lodge! The COO of the Lodge, Jim Engel, is a founder of Pet Angel, so the employees of the Lodge took me to Jim's office and I spent the day with him, and then he brought me to the rescue! Pet Angel went on a hunt to find my family, and found out that I've been a stray cat living on the streets of Frankenmuth most of my life! A family just south of Mobil in Frankenmuth was caring for me as their stray, but weren't able to bring me inside and keep me, so I become a Pet Angel cat! Pet Angel got me fully vetted, and I'm finally ready to be a housecat! I heard being a house cat is way better than living on the streets, and I'm excited to find my very own (and first ever) home!

I love to play! With toys, with people, with strings hanging off your hoodie, and with anyting I can turn into a toy! I love to wrestle with my human friends, and will play with you rough! I enjoy attention, love to rub up against your ankles, and enjoy rolling around on my favorite rug! I love ALL types of cat toys- jingle balls, and yeowww toys, and felt mice, and foil balls, springs and pom poms are some of my favorites! I get very excited when you bring the stick toy out to play with me, because I love to chase after it! I am a big fan of canned food, and love treats VERY much! I am an alpha cat, and like to be dominate, so sometimes I will reach out and grab my human friends when they walk by, so I hope to find humans who can put up with a saucy guy like me!

I haven't met the other kitties at Pet Angel because most of them are shy or have special needs, and I am a cat who likes to wrestle and play. I would likely get along with another cat that would be submissive, but if you have another alpha cat, we would likely not get along. Since I lived as an outside cat for so long, I had to avoid dogs most of my life, and dogs make me nervous. I would be best suited for a home with no dogs. Additionally, I like to play with my humans and am rough, so I would be best in a home with children over the age 12.

I am looking for a strictly indoor only home, with a family who will NEVER let me outside! I lived on the streets for long enough, and am excited to transition into a spoiled house cat! I have never had a family before, and can't wait to find the humans who will love me until the end of time! I am fixed, microchipped, up to date on all my shots, and negative for FIV/FELV! If you would like to meet me and see if I'm the kitty you've been looking for, please submit an application at https://petangeladoption.com/adopt-a-cat
