My story

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

Wally showed up in early November of 2023, when we caught a glimpse of him dashing out of our garage with a bag of cat treats in his mouth. The treats were intended for a semi-feral tomcat we had been trying to domesticate. He showed up again the next day, looking for more food, and it was apparent that he was malnourished and could hardly open his eyes.

We managed to get him in a crate and took him to Kitty Angel where he received food and fluids and his condition was assessed. During the exam it was discovered that he had an intestinal infection and his eyes were entropion, meaning the bottom eyelids were flipped over, causing severe irritation.

After a month of treatment, the intestinal infection cleared up and the vet determined that they could move forward with correcting his entropic condition. Two surgeries later, his sparkly green eyes were finally visible and he was free from the irritation that must have plagued him his entire life. His demeanor and disposition improved dramatically after the surgery, and he became much more affectionate and playful.

He still has his moments and may nip a little if startled and doesn’t enjoy being picked up, but he’s a curious and friendly companion, who likes to nap on my husband’s lap and give affectionate headbutts. We’re not sure of his age, but the vets who treated him estimated him to be around 5yrs old so maybe born spring of 2019. He's fairly docile around our 4 female cats, but we’re currently keeping them separated because the females don’t interact well with strange cats.

Wally weighs approx. 8lbs with a long, lean build and very long, bushy tale. He’s quite the handsome fellow!

More about this rescue

Purrfect Friends Cat Rescue is an all-volunteer, non-profit group working to end the plight and suffering of unwanted cats and kittens in the greater Cincinnati area. We do this by educating the general public about the importance of spaying or neutering their pets to lessen the drastic over-population of cats; we provide foster homes to cats and kittens waiting for adoption, and provide information and guidance to people working to help the feral cat population through TNR (trap, neuter and release) efforts.

Meet the cats every Saturday at our adoption events (details listed below), and you can see the cats on Petfinders and 1800save-a-pet in the hopes of finding good homes for them.
