Story
Purrnado... Part tornado, part purr... He is a VERY vocal boy, loves to talk to you even though he seems to be entirely deaf -- he has learned to live with other cats and does very well with others. Purrnado sleeps like the dead, he is an incredibly sound sleeper. He definitely likes to be around people, and loves his special cushion where he naps the better part of the day. He LOVES the vacuum and will follow you around, simply fascinated. He looks like a bobtail kitty, but we believe that his tail is short due to an injury a long time ago. He does have a puffy nose that we haven't found an explanation for, but definitely gives him some character. He is estimated to be about 6 years old, and has a $100 adoption fee. All cats adopted through our rescue are age appropriately vaccinated including rabies & FVRCP/Feline Leukemia vaccines, dewormed & free of fleas, combo tested (negative unless otherwise noted), microchipped and spayed/neutered before adoptions are finalized. If you would like to adopt, please fill out the application through the link or the website at -www.whiskersofohio.org - please note that the "I'm interested" tab on Petfinder does NOT act as an application, this should only be used for specific questions before committing to an adoption. You will receive an email confirmation when your application goes through. We make no breed guarantees; we are a rescue, not a breeder. Please only apply for a specific kitten if you are committed to adopting! Our workers are all volunteers and it takes time to process applications. We are a registered, volunteer run 501c3 non-profit organization. Free transport is regularly available to Wayne/Holmes County areas! We do have the ability to fly a cat or pair of kittens via Southwest's SWATT program to any location served by Southwest Airlines. It isn't free but has been a great way to transport animals in a timely manner.
