Story
Seeking free residence for Jojo, a crotchety old man who has been imprisoned in the living corpse of a cat! In his human life, Jojo was a farmer who bulldozed down a cat plantation to turn into peacock grazing fields. So when Jojo moved beyond our mortal plane, the fates smited him by cramming his soul into the vestige of a grey tabby. So naturally Jojo the Cat CANNOT live with other cats - because he hates cats (he also has FIV or feline AIDS). Jojo is no spring chicken! He’s fully prepared to fart around in your living room. The man comes pre trained to do his business in a box - that we will provide! He might even use a scratching post (we can also provide) if placed strategically and you don’t make a big deal out of it. Being the cranky octogenarian he is, Jojo loves being left the heck ALONE. He also likes lying in the sun, screaming, eating, and mourning his human body. He’ll never pass up a nap near a sunny window -either - that sounds kind of nice - right?
