My story

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

Onyx is a 4 year old black Bengal. I adopted him from a rescue in April 2024. I was told he lived in a Chicago high rise prior to coming to the rescue. The previous owners also had his front and back paws declawed. He is loving, but shy. He will run away and hide. However, if you get him and hold him he will cuddle for hours with you purring the whole time. He gets along with other cats too. Unfortunately my son moved back in with me since having him. My son has tried to adjust with his allergies. Onyx has a favorite room in the house and it is of course my son's room. I've tried to move him to other rooms, but he always sneaks his way back to my son's room. My son is reacting terribly to it with sneezing, coughing, and having a hard time breathing. He has tried many different allergy meds, but none work to alleviate any of it. This has been going on for 6-8 months so it isn't for lack of trying.
