Story
Sunny was my Mom's cat until she passed. He is so loving and loves to be brushed. He does shed a lot if he isn't brushed at least a couple times a week and he can purr super loud. He is declawed in the front. He loves to play with the lazar light or with a string or toy to chase. I really love him but not fair to him to be scared a lot. I really don't want to part with him but he is afraid of the other cats that I have had over 10 years. He is on my lap a lot. I have to down size as it is to expensive to care for so many. I love them all. He hasn't been around kids much as he gets scared of all the racket they make. He was around my mom's dog which they got a long cause she didn't bother him. Sunny is a great cat so I want someone that can care for him like he deserves. He is almost 11 as he was born in late 2014 just not sure of exact date. Any other questions just ask.

Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Roman (b 5/2017) a Domestic Shorthair.  Roman is looking for a special home because he is a special cat.  He is diabetic, so he needs a special diet and two insulin shots every day.  We can teach you how to give insulin, it's not too difficult! Roman is a calm, cuddly cat who loves belly rubs.  He is very affectionate.  He gets along with calm dogs but we are not sure about other cats or children.  Does Roman sound like the perfect cat for you? The suggested adoption donation for Roman is $65, which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training). Muddy Paws is a 501c3 non-profit organization meaning that part of your donation MAY be TAX DEDUCTIBLE. We are a 100% volunteer rescue committed to giving animals a second chance at life. All donations go toward that mission. Adoption fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals.  In 2022 alone, we provided animal Healthcare totaling over $300,000 covered mainly through adoption fees. Information about the adoption process: All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION. Once your application has completed our prescreen steps, we will put you in touch with the animal’s foster to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the animal. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver. Please Note: We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks, and a Home Visit (Virtual in some cases)  during the application approval process. We always select the right applicant for each animal, based on the animal’s needs. If you and the animal are not a good match, we will help you select another animal, or we will keep your approved application on file for 6 months.
