Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We were camping at Rend Lake IL and this skinny kitty was crying for food. After a few days of feeding, I was able to pet him. He couldn't be feral. I heard that people dump cats at campgrounds around the lake. But they would soon be closing for the winter. How would he survive? I found out that if the park rangers would trap him, they take cats to the kill shelter. I managed to get him into our pet crate the morning we were leaving. He has been to the vet. She figured about a year old. Not chipped and had not been neutered. We took him to the Carol House Clinic St. Louis, MO on 11/04/25 so he is neutered. He would do best as an only cat. Experience with strays would be helpful. He loves to be petted, brushed, carried by me and my husband. He runs from anyone else. He will be a wonderful pet once he knows that someone new is going to feed and love him. That will take patience. Thank you for reading about this amazing boy. Looking for an inside forever home.
