Story
I adopted this boy from a family that was going to euthanize him. He has behavioral issues (defecates outside of the litter box) and frequently prolapses. Previous vet records from ER trips with former family states that family should consider colopexy. He is a 4 year old neutered cat. He is quiet (unless he's meowing for food) and content with just laying around the house getting pets. When I initially got him he was pooping in the litter box exclusively but since introducing him to my two pups he has moved to only pooping outside of the box. I believe his ideal family is one where he could be the only pet.
