Story
I am helping my son's fiancee. Her sister had this cat and was not able to care for him properly related to her depression. His fur was very matted and dirty. I have had him for about a month and was finally able to get into the Vet for a visit. He had to be shaved and given antibiotics for the condition of his skin. He will be returning on the 10th of February for rabies and distemper shots. I will not be able to afford the FIV or Feline Leukemia tests but he has been an Indoor cat. He is 9 years old, very friendly loves the brush but he is obese.

Story
Meet Terrance!This nice boy is in need of the perfect home.He was recently returned, due to not getting along with a resident dog and cat.They had all been cohabitating together for quite some time, until something happened and Terrance no longer liked one of the cats and the dog.He did, however, get along with the young female kitty in the home.Terrance is SO SWEET and friendly with all the people he meets.He LOVES to be pet and shown love.He'll likely do best either as the only cat or with a younger female cat.Slow and proper introductions are key to setting off on the right foot, when introducing a new pet into the home.We hope someone gives Terrance a chance.He has the kindest eyes and is a good boy.Terrance had a dental exam done after arriving at our shelter, resulting in all his teeth being removed. He is doing great, however! He feels MUCH better with no more pain in his mouth.His adoption fee is $150.He is neutered and vaccinated.Apply online to adopt: watonwan.weebly.com____Please Note: We ask that an application be filled out before coming to the shelter.
