My personality

My story

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

Joshua and his sisters, Joanna and Judith came to rescue having been found under a tree during a thunderstorm. Joshua was almost unresponsive and needed immediate medical care. While in rescue, this poor little guy has struggled with maintaining his weight and staying hydrated. He has also been diagnosed with seizure disorder requiring medication. He has scared his foster mom several times by trying to pass away. He has responded to all critical care interventions, and he is slowly getting stronger.
He is simply the sweetest lil guy. Gives kisses and loves to be cuddled. Joshua is a long-haired tuxedo (almost an identical twin to his sister Judith). He is going to be a real heart breaker when he gets older.

More about this rescue

Saint Gertrude Rescue is a small, non-profit kitten rescue serving the Birmingham and Huntsville areas in Alabama. We lovingly guide abandoned and orphaned cats and kittens towards their intended forever family. After rescue, these little innocent angels are hand-raised in foster care. Many require constant care and attention. They are given abundant love, nurtured, socialized, and all health and veterinary needs are attended to.

We follow the prayer of our beloved St. Gertrude of Nivelles: “…God has graced us with the love of his heavenly creatures. We pray for the protection of our dearly beloved pets…with the love of all beings.”
