Story
Hi, my name is Luca. I am a 3-legged senior gentleman, who is estimated to be around 10 years old. My history is unknown, but boy if I could only speak "human", I would have some stories to tell.I was found as a stray this year, traveling with another senior cat friend, and brought into a local shelter. They saw I was such a dashing and charming guy with beautiful blue eyes and a gentle soul, and they knew they had to find me a special rescue.Henrico Humane graciously took me in. Can I say, LIFE. IS. GOOD. NOW. I can enjoy my days snuggled up on my cat bed next to my foster mom, while she works from home. I enjoy venturing around the house when there are things to be explored, but with my mobility (arthritis and having only 3 legs) that is limited for now. One thing Henrico Humane did discover about me, is that I was shot by someone at some point in my life, if only I could tell these nice folks if that is how I lost my leg, but they don't understand "cat meows". Nonetheless, my past has not affected my present and my outlook for the future. It would be great if my new home has a heart for special needs animals, as I do have arthritis in my remaining back leg. This causes me to need monthly pain injections that can be done easily at home. I do continue to have "issues" with going poo in the box, since standing still is sometimes hard for me. My foster mom says that is easily managed by bringing me to the box when it is time. I conveniently only go poo once a day most days and it is consistently on a 24 hour schedule. Other than that, I am a loving, gentle kitty that loves to spend time with my family.If I sound like a kitty you could love and give a special home to, please ask to speak to my foster mom on what care I may need and the love I have to give in return.Applications are reviewed on a first come first served basis, so we encourage you to complete an application at www.henricohumane.org/adopt-a-cat before coming to our next adoption event.
