My story

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

Bobble — Brave Heart, Big Purrs, and a Journey from Oman

Hi, I’m Bobble.
I may not be able to see the world—but I feel it deeply, and I love it even more.

My story began far from here, in Muscat, Oman. I showed up alone in a volunteer’s garden, tiny and very sick, with no mom or siblings in sight. I was fighting a bad flu, a severe eye infection, and malnutrition. Things were so dire that my chances didn’t look good—but one kind human believed in me when it mattered most. Because of that, I was given a chance to live.

To save my life, the vets made a hard but loving decision: my eyes were removed to stop the infection. And you know what? I survived. I grew strong. And I proved that blindness would never define what I could do—or who I could be.

Today, I’m a happy, playful, confident boy who traveled all the way from Oman to start fresh. I settled into my foster home right away, and once I learned where everything was, I made myself completely at home. Honestly? Most people forget I’m blind—I certainly do.

I’m full of energy and curiosity. Toys that make noise are my absolute favorite, and I love zooming around the house, exploring every nook and cranny. Sometimes I climb a little higher than I mean to and need help finding my way back down—but that just adds to my charm. I keep life interesting.

When playtime is over, I turn into the biggest cuddle bug. I love flopping right next to you, pressing myself against you, and purring as loudly as I possibly can. Laps are my happy place, and I’ll happily stay there for hours. I’m also your built-in shadow—if you move rooms without me, I’ll let you know I’m coming. I even weave gently around your legs while you walk, both to keep you company and help guide myself through new spaces.

I’m sweet, a little feisty, and very affectionate. I love pets, sometimes give gentle love nibbles, and enjoy playing with cats I trust. Because I can’t see, I can be protective of my space at times and do best with feline friends who are gentle, respectful, and kind. A calm or friendly playful cat who understands boundaries could be a wonderful companion for me.

I use my litter box perfectly, thrive indoors, and do best in a calm, loving home where I get lots of attention, reassurance, and patience while I settle in.

I’ve already come so far—from the brink of losing everything, to traveling across the world, to becoming a joyful, resilient little soul. Now all I need is my person. Someone who sees me not for what I’ve lost—but for everything I am.

If you’re looking for a cat who will love you fiercely, follow you everywhere, and remind you every day that miracles come in small, purring packages… I might just be your Bobble.

More about this rescue

Every day adult and senior cats with treatable medical and behavioral conditions are euthanized. GIVE ME SHELTER's goal is to rescue these cats from certain death and place them into loving permanent homes.
GMS is a registered 501(c)3 organization and is dedicated to helping stop the overpopulation of unwanted and abandoned cats. We are a small group of dedicated volunteers who are committed to bettering the life of adult cats who no longer have a home to call their own. Every time you adopt from us, you allow us to save another cat that would have otherwise died. We receive new cats into our system almost every week. Our website is constantly being updated, so please check back often!
