Story
Three year old Kevin is a special dude who's looking for an equally special home - If you love cats that are full of personality, mischief, and have a sweet n' sassy attitude, Kevin wants to get to know you!
Kevin originally became a member of the Furry Friends Family after he was surrendered at our door. Although he was just a baby at the time, he was extremely frightened of everything around him and just had no idea how to exist without that paralyzing fear. We quickly discovered that hands, feet, and raised voices in particular terrified him, and in order to protect himself from these perceived threats, Kevin would bite and scratch to keep humans away. This reaction was of no fault of Kevin's own, something that clearly scared him right to his very core before we met him.
It has taken almost three years to heal from his trauma, but Kevin has made absolutely incredible progress with the help of our volunteers and vets - Nowadays Kevin is a true kitty King in every sense of the word, and he continues to grow and learn every day!
With an incredibly intelligent personality, Kevin likes to live life with a 'my way or the highway' mindset - He loves to push his boundaries and see just how much mischief he can get away with, which means that he needs an experienced adopter who can handle his antics! With gentle but firm guidance, Kevin knows how to be a perfectly good boy, even if he pretends not to sometimes.
Playful, energetic, and an unapologetic couch potato once he works all of that energy off, Kevin loves to leap from cat tree to window ledge and back again. He has learned just recently that being brushed is GREAT, and he appreciates a well placed scratch on the head and shoulders. You will often find him melting in the sun, and he has even discovered that sleeping in a lap is amazing.
Kevin can still become startled and momentarily revert back to the frightened kitten he used to be, and sometimes he will bite or scratch when he feels unsafe. He just needs a calm and steady human who is going to love him through his fears, and still be there on the other side for him.
Kevin is looking for a home with no cats, no dogs, and no children. He would greatly benefit from an experienced adopter who is ready to go toe to toe with King Kevin's bodacious personality, and all of the wonderful quirks that come with a cat like him. He is also on a daily medication in order to help manage is anxiety, which he eats in his food like a champ.
Kevin has come a long way on his healing journey, and with your help, he's only going to get better and better!
