My story

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

If you would like more information about Mr. Sweetness and Goldie or are interested in adopting them, please send an email to Philngoodes@gmail.com

Mr. Sweetness is one of two cats in a bonded pair, and the last two left from the original Catnip Inn/The Cat’s Pajamas of Houston adoption room. He and his partner, Goldie, were left as kittens with the business to try to find homes, which they are unfortunately still waiting on.

They’ve had to change locations and hands several times since then, being about nine years old now, and as such, Mr. Sweetness is shy and withdrawn. He IS, however, all talk. I have had to give him medications and even bathe him once; and while he will run for his life, once you catch him, he is completely non-hostile. He does not bite or scratch, no matter how much he flails and yells.

Mr. Sweetness had a home briefly and was showing progress warming up, laying out around the man who adopted him but the gentleman tragically passed away after owning him and Goldie only about a week. This gives me hope that he will open up.

He is EXTREMELY affectionate with his partner, and just curls up in corners without her, but I’ve seen him get excited for wet food and rub on nearby furniture, as well as be pet very briefly. What this boy really needs is someone to pick him and give him the personal tender loving care he’s been waiting his whole life to get, so that he might live out the rest of his life peacefully.
