Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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


4 year old cat food adoption
Rico is a sweet snuggly boy, but has started peeing all over the house. He was my neighbors cat that we took in about 6 months ago because her other cat kept attacking him. He's fixed, and front declawed. He does NOT like dogs (has peed on all the dog beds even though my dog is gentle and sweet with him) and needs a home with older kids NOT toddlers. I honestly HATE giving him up, but even the vet I took him to said he's healthy no UTI, but suffers from anxiety in my house. I can't make it less chaos because I have 3 kids under 6. He would do best in a home with no other pets, but might be ok with other cats. I just can't live with cat pee covering my house. Please someone who works from home take him, he really is the sweetest cat, he naps with me all the time and always snuggles with me while I watch TV. Would come with toys and bed and cat food
