My personality

My story

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

Meet Locke – A Special Boy Looking for a Special Home

Locke is a 9–10 month old sweetheart with a big personality and an even bigger heart. This goofy, playful guy has been through more than most in his life, but you’d never know it—he’s full of love, energy, and snuggles.

Locke is FeLV positive (Feline Leukemia Virus), which can sound scary at first, but we encourage anyone interested to do their own research. There’s a lot of misinformation out there, and his most recent bloodwork shows that with a safe indoor environment and proper care, he has the potential to live a long, happy life just like any other cat.

Here’s what makes Locke amazing:
- **Funny and playful** – he’s always ready to chase a toy or goof around
- **Super cuddly** – with humans and even dogs! He absolutely loves to snuggle
- **Food motivated** – mealtime is his favorite time
- **Resilient and loving** – despite everything he’s been through, his heart is wide open

Due to his FeLV+ status, Locke hasn’t been around other cats while in rescue, but he’s shown he can be great with dog friends! He was with cats up until he was brought into rescue at 5 months old, and if he wasn’t FeLV+, likely would have been a bonded pair with another cat he came in with who was negative. He’s ready to find his forever person or family who will give him the love and safety he deserves.

If you’re looking for a cuddly companion with a huge heart and a silly side, Locke might just be your perfect match.

Apply to foster here: https://www.legendssenioranimalrescue.org/foster-application

All of our foster animals can be seen by appointment. You can contact us through our website at http://legendsrescue.org/index.php/contact/ or visit our facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/LegendsRescue/ if you have further questions or would like to schedule a meet and greet.
FOSTER CARE: Our rescues are fostered in individual homes or at our facility. We work hard to ensure that our rescues have a supportive family while at foster homes to help them move forward and get ready for their forever home. We work on training, crate-training and socialization before an animal is adopted out. Foster homes are extremely important to the success of the cat at their forever home, and it is extremely rewarding to be able to watch the cats growth as you help them on their journey to their happy ending.
YOU CAN HELP: If you’re not able to foster or adopt right now, please consider sponsoring a Legend. Your donation will help with our care and pay for medical costs. Visit this link https://www.legendssenioranimalrescue.org/checkout/donate?donatePageId=665e5818df4f572e36b69c9f to donate.

More about this rescue

Legends Animal Rescue and Sanctuary is a rescue based in New Brighton, Minnesota founded in 2017. Most of our dogs are rescued from Puppy Mills or surrendered. We help them decompress, realize humans are good, trustworthy and they deserve love. It’s so rewarding watching these dogs come out of their shell and develop personalities.
All of us have been working extra hard with extra dogs! If you are looking to foster or adopt a dog – or two – we have puppies to seniors – shedding and non-shedding.
So, if you have room in your home for some sweetness, or know someone who needs a new friend or two – please contact us, or go to Legends Rescue on Facebook or email.
