He has diabetes which is managed by twice daily injections, which he tolerates with head pats. CLARK is intimidated by other cats and dogs, and grumbles if they come too close. A quiet home with no dogs or kitties would be best for him. He enjoys sitting on a quiet lap, and loves gentle pets on his head and under his chin.  AGE:  born approx.  6/15/15  MICROCHIP #:  -4167 DATE OF STERILIZATION:  neutered, date unknown  VAX RECORD:  FVRCP expires: 6/15/21, age exempt from updates; Rabies expires: 10/14/28 FELV/FIV test:  7/21/20, 8/11/25 neg    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: CLARK has diabetes that is managed by twice daily insulin injections, and daily blood glucose checks.  If you may be interested in adopting, please complete our online application: https://www.fandfnm.org/application.

Story
HISTORY: CHEZ and CAZ were surrendered to F&F in 2025. CAZ was adopted but later returned when his owner could no longer care for him.  TEMPERAMENT: Caz is a big boy who loves to help you stay warm. You can turn down your thermostat this winter with the original heater cat on your lap, while his giant purr and habit of looking at you with his big green eyes will warm your very heart and soul. He likes to chase a string, even if mostly while lying down. That's exercise too, isn't it? He will prefer his human to be home but won't complain if he's on his own; he'll just be happy to see you.  AGE:   born approx. 5/16/2014 MICROCHIP #: -9207 DATE OF STERILIZATION: 11/12/14 VAX RECORD:  FVRCP: 4/9/25, FVRCP #2: 6/2/26; FVRCP expires: 6/2/27; Rabies expires: 6/2/27FELV/FIV test:  4/9/25 neg  ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: ADOPTION FEE: $100  If you may be interested in adopting, please complete our online application: https://www.fandfnm.org/application.
