My story

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

# A5739843 Van

Meet Van!
-1 year 1 month • Neutered male
-Domestic Shorthair • Black
-Stray intake
- 10.1 lbs on Dec 3
-Microchipped & vaccinated
- Needs a health waiver (front paw issue + cold/possible conjunctivitis)

Say hello to Van , a gentle, affectionate black cat with a sweet heart and soulful eyes. He came in as a stray and isn’t feeling his best right now — he has something going on with his front paw and also has a cold or possible conjunctivitis — but through it all, he remains incredibly loving.

Van is:
- Very sweet
- Loves gentle pets
- Calm and easy to handle
- A sleek, handsome black kitty
- In need of a patient, loving home to heal

Even while uncomfortable, Van leaned in for affection. With a quiet home and some TLC, this beautiful boy will blossom into a wonderful companion.

If you want to give a tender-hearted cat a chance to heal and feel loved, Van is your boy .

More about this rescue

United Hope for Animals is a 501c3 non-profit organization committed to creating a world where our relationship with animals is guided by compassion and responsibility. We actively work toward bringing an end to the needless suffering of companion animals through community-based programs here at home and across the border.

The United States euthanizes more than one million dogs and cats each year. Through our Shelter Support Program, we work in partnership with local shelters to reduce this number by raising public awareness about shelter adoption and facilitating rescue and adoption of sheltered animals. In the process, we bring dignity and hope to the many lives that would otherwise pass anonymously through the animal control system.
