Story
Lucky Boy is bonded to Constance. Part of a large hoarding case, Lucky Boy was taken in by Feline Matchmakers in an emaciated state. He is steadily gaining weight and show no signs of illness. We believe he is now ready for a home that will continue to feed him on a steady schedule as he continues to progress. He was in a house with a dog and many other cats. All Feline Matchmakers cats get age appropriate vaccinations, fixed, tested and microchipped prior to adoption. Please fill in our application via this link: http://www.felinematchmakers.org We only adopt kittens and young cats out within a one hour radius of Wilmington, NC to those over 21 years old. Occasionally we make exceptions for adult cats, but we are not a transport company. Kittens will only be adopted in pairs if there are no other family cats in the home. IF YOU DO NOT MEET THESE GUIDELINES, YOUR APPLICATION WILL BE REJECTED. ##2614590##
