Story
Meet Percy. He's a young adult with medium-length fur. He is a Big fella now. I love to spoil the kitties. What can I say? March 17th he was trapped. Weeks prior Percy and another kitty were spotted with injuries that required medical attention. Took a volunteer week and only Percy was trapped and immediately saw the vet He's been at the sanctuary healing. With daily care needed he finally learned to accept us humans. He was a feisty grossly fella but the trick is wet food 2x a day with petting and patience. He was neutered a week ago and today he is ready for his happy forever to find him. Percy is FIV positive, also has a heart murmur, and due to his lack of ability /street wisdom he cannot be released back outside. He needs a family that will shower him with love, attention, playtime, toys and quality care indoors living only. A responsible pet-owning home. Did I mention how much he loves warm wet food?! Percy is good with cats and dogs. His stay at the sanctuary has allowed him to trust he's safe around them. Available now animalhousesanctuary.org
