My story

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

Meet the cutest little goblin! Pumpkin is a petite orange cat with personality +. He’s so cute with a curly tail, and howls instead of meows. You’ll love his purrs and head butts whenever he sees you and he’ll happily greet all visitors to your home. He’s good left alone and his favorite things are window sitting and playing with food puzzles. He learns quickly and adapts to change effortlessly. Pumpkin has lived with another cat and is comfortable in a foster home with multiple cats. Since he is 14 yrs old, he is generally pretty calm and quiet. He does know "sit" and "high five," though! Pumpkin does have some dental disease and is in early stage kidney disease. He needs no medication for his conditions at this time, just Fancy Feast or i/d diet with some MiraLax for a sensitive tummy and lots of fresh water. If you’re looking for a sweet tempered, low maintenance cat, Pumpkin is your goblin!

***Pumpkin can go home with his own 'care package' of 3 months' worth of his medication and special diet.***
