Niles is a sweet, playful, and outgoing kitten who loves everyone. He's talkative, affectionate, and full of personality. He does well with dogs and loves a cat to play with. Niles would thrive well with another kitty sibling as he loves to play!
Niles was born with a condition which affects the muscles around his sphincter and can cause occasional fecal incontinence. He has insufficient anal tone to his external and internal sphincter. It is a congenital abnormality rather than an illness. Earlier on, he struggled with constipation, but he's now doing very well with the help of 2 medications! The medications he is on are scripted but are easy to access and pretty inexpensive. $14 a year for one medication and $45 quarterly for the second medication. They make him very comfortable and are easy to administer to him by mouth. Very good trade off for an entertaining and sweet kitty!!
While Niles is an overall happy kitten now, he unfortunately experiences intermittent fecal incontinence. He uses the litterbox, but sometimes leaks without realizing it, so his backside may not always be clean, and he regularly drops poop outside the litterbox.
There is a chance he may become cleaner with time, but it may also be a life-long condition.
He is such a sweet boy and deserves a chance to find his forever home! We hope you all give this little guy a chance. Please reach out to meet him!! He's already neutered and ready to go home TODAY!! Primary Color: Tabby- Orange Secondary Color: White Weight: 4.6 Age: 0yrs 8mths 1wks
