(Central Texas Adoption Only & Home Delivery)Sir Whiskerton"Every gentleman deserves one last chance."Some cats come into rescue because they were lost. Others because they were forgotten.Sir Whiskerton came to us after being returned to the shelter three separate times, and when no one came for him again, he landed on the euthanasia list. Thankfully, SOS Cat Rescue stepped in before his story ended.Today, this handsome golden Persian is looking for the person who understands that sometimes the most rewarding cats simply need someone willing to meet them where they are.Sir Whiskerton is everything you would expect from a Persian gentleman. His unbelievably soft coat, fluffy feet that look like little slippers, and adorable light golden mustache give him the appearance of an aristocrat who wandered straight out of an old portrait. His luxurious coat requires daily brushing, and because Persians are prone to eye drainage, he also needs routine facial care. Like many Persians, he isn't a fan of having his face cleaned, so we recommend giving him gabapentin before grooming sessions to help make the experience less stressful for everyone.When he first arrived, his coat had become so matted that he needed to be completely shaved. With regular grooming, his beautiful coat has grown back into the silky cloud it was always meant to be.Sir Whiskerton has a few special preferences that make him uniquely him. He enjoys eating from a flat or slightly raised plate because it's much easier on his adorable Persian face. He absolutely adores silvervine toys—especially his favorite silvervine chew—and can happily entertain himself for quite a while. Unlike many cats, wand toys don't impress this gentleman much.He also believes every home should include a cozy heating pad and a covered, cave-style bed where he can retreat when life becomes a little overwhelming. Having a quiet place to decompress helps him feel secure and confident.His future family should understand that scratching posts have never really made sense to him. This was unfortunately one of the reasons he was previously returned. He'll need patient adopters who are willing to redirect him kindly, protect furniture appropriately, and understand that learning new habits takes time. He'll also need regular toenail trims, as he isn't able to keep his nails maintained on his own.Because of his grooming needs, Sir Whiskerton is looking specifically for adopters who have experience with long-haired cats or, ideally, Persians. His daily care isn't difficult—it simply requires consistency, patience, and someone who appreciates that maintaining his magnificent coat is part of loving him.Most of all, Sir Whiskerton wants what every cat deserves: full access to the home, a family to greet each day, and the security of knowing he'll never be returned again.After three returns, he's ready for his forever.Could your home finally be the one where this distinguished gentleman gets to stay?Sir Whiskerton's Care RequirementsExperienced with Persians or other long-haired cats preferred.Daily brushing to prevent painful mats.Daily eye care (gabapentin recommended before facial grooming).Flat or raised feeding plate.Regular sanitary care and toenail trims.Patient family willing to work with appropriate scratching habits.Loves silvervine toys, heating pads, and covered beds.Should have full access to the home with a quiet retreat when he wants downtime.Sir Whiskerton has already survived more disappointment than any cat should. We're looking for the family who will make sure he never has to wonder where he belongs again.Thank you for considering adopting one of our kittens/cats.

Gracie is about 5 years old and spayed. I found her in the middle of the road when she was about 3-4 weeks old. She is the sweetest little kitty, but very timid and sensitive. Once she warms up to you, she is such a cuddle bug. She is not aggressive at all — but she does get overwhelmed by loud sounds and sudden movements, so a quieter home without young children would likely suit her best. Her favorite thing in the world is sitting in windowsills. She spends almost every waking moment rotating between windows throughout the day, happily bird watching and sunbathing. The rehoming fee will go towards a new cat carrier for her.
