Lieutenant Dan may have been named after a tough-as-nails movie character, but this little hero has written his own comeback story. When he first arrived at his foster home, he couldn’t use his back legs after a garage accident. But just like a true fighter, within two weeks he amazed everyone by walking, running, and living life with the joy and determination of a cat who refused to give up.
Today, kitten Lieutenant Dan shows no signs of slowing down—unless it’s to snuggle up close for some love. He’s a professional head-butt giver, a world-class leg rubber (watch your step, he’ll be right there underfoot!), and a master cuddler when it’s time to relax in the chair with his human. If you’ve got treats in hand or the laser pointer nearby, expect him to come racing to your side. He loves food, playtime, and, most of all, being close to people. Once he trusts you, he melts into your arms and happily soaks up being carried like the treasure he knows he is.
His favorite playmate is his best buddy, Gary. The two spend their days wrestling, napping side by side, and plotting new adventures together. Since their bond is so strong we’d love for Lt. Dan and Gary to be adopted as a pair.
Lieutenant Dan has proven that nothing can hold him back—not pain, not fear, and certainly not a setback. If you’re looking for a kitten with courage, a heart full of love, and an unbeatable spirit, this inspiring and affectionate boy is ready to march right into your life and stay by your side.
If you’re looking for a duo that brings double the fun, double the love, and double the heart, Lt. Dan and Gary are ready to march right into your home—and straight into your heart.
