Turkish Angora kittens & cats in Riverview, Michigan

***Video of him can be seen on our Facebook page here.*** Angel is such a beautiful cat you might wonder why he's been at the shelter so long... Angel needs people who can understand his need to feel safe due to everything he has been through. To some people, this makes Angel appear "damaged". He's not damaged though. The world (until now) has just been unkind to him. He deserves a home who will make him feel cherished and loved. Angel does not like other cats and will react with extreme fear. This is likely as a result of being tormented when outside on his own. He should without a doubt be an only cat with a family all to himself. Angelis (Angel) was found as a stray in pretty rough shape. He had fleas that tormented him so much, he'd scratched most of his fur off. He was eating whatever he could find which doesn't seem to be much. He was very thin and had a hard time holding his food in when we first met him. This was months ago, though he still has the occasional stomach upset if not kept on a mild food (like sensitive stomach). Now Angel is so much stronger and we love watching his coat come back! He is simply gorgeous! He loves people. He gives the sweetest head bumps when being fed each morning. And he loves to have his chin scratched.

Birthdate Feb 14th,2015 What Valentine needs. A home with no other pets or young kids. A home that will understand her opinion. A home that will love her forever A quiet less busy house What Valentine currently has A foster home with other cats and large dogs A foster home with a young child A foster home that understands her opinions Valentine loves to nap on the foot of my recliner, on the back of my recliner and a spot on my bed where she won't be disturbed. She likes to get pets but not so much that puts her on edge. She allows me to trim her toe nails, wipe her eyes once in a while and she likes to be brushed. She doesn't love going to the vet so she needs a little something to help her stay calm. She loves me and my husband just not the rest of the hustle and bustle of the house, I had foster kittens and she was ok with them but the other adults seem to be her biggest issue. She is not a hider, she is social. When agitated she has swiped and occasionally used her teeth. I don't think she means to hurt as she has tried to bite me when I have pushed her so I could get a feel for her. She puts her teeth on you but doesn't really bite to injure. If you pull away you may get a scratch. I keep her nails trimmed so swipes don't have the opportunity to scratch. But in a calm less intimidating home I don't feel like this would be an issue. **All Shelter to Home animals are fully vetted per their age. We believe in pediatric spay and neuter.

Jasper is a special guy for several reasons, each one being important to consider as we search for his perfect forever home. First, the basics. He's 2 and a half years old and weighs about 10lbs. Gorgeous coat and stunning green eyes that will suck you right into his trap. Gets along well with other cats, is currently skittish around our dogs but I think he'd be totally fine with dogs that ignore him.Now, for the details about what makes him so special.He had to have his rear left leg amputated. The vet believes he was born with bad hips. The remaining one isn't so great and may go bad or develop arthritis as he ages, but for now, he hops and jumps around like any other cat. He's not very fast on it, but he gets around just fine.Usually we save the best for last, but in this case, I've saved the worst for last. Why? Well, I'm hoping if you've read this far and you're still with me, maybe this last bit won't seem so bad...but the truth is, it's not great. Jasper bites. He is very easily over-stimulated and likes to bite legs and feet...and if you're in sandals, your big toe doesn't stand a chance. If you pet him too long, your hand might also be a target. Jasper has been roaming around my house for a few weeks now. He spends most of his time in the basement because of the dogs, but he usually comes upstairs for a lap around the house in the evening when we are home watching TV. He hasn't been social with us upstairs, but when I go to the basement to do laundry, scoop the boxes, or work in the office, he's right by me the whole time. When I work down there all day, he sleeps in a cat bed on my desk, and occasionally sprawls out in front of (or on) the keyboard. He's interested in what I'm doing, loves attention, pets, chin scratches, the whole thing...but do it too long and you'll get a chomp. He's the sweetest cat ever...until something in him switches on and he feels the need to put his mouth on something. Is he tearing me up and sending me to urgent care???... heck no. Most of the time it's hardly more than a scratch, but...he has drawn blood. I've never needed a band-aid for any of it, though. Not sure if needing urgent care or a bandage are any kind of scale we can use to gauge the severity of his behavior, but I'm always going to be honest about my foster animals...both good and bad.So how do I handle living with a little 3 legged alligator? Well, I know his signals. When his tail starts flicking back and forth harder, I stop engaging. When I'm trying to walk and he gets right in front of me and blocks me...I stop walking and stand still until he walks away. His bites are very predictable if you know how to read a cat, but Jasper is a cat I would never place in a home with children or an inexperienced cat person. He is very sweet 95% of the time...but that other 5% means we aren't looking for the typical cat owner for him. I suspect there will be lots of interested in him because of those green eyes and the "awwwww" factor of having 3 legs. I may have to talk to, and deny, a lot of GREAT families who are interested. Our rescue has had a couple other biters and we found perfect homes for both of them. I'm really hoping Jasper can get that lucky, too. If you think you might be the right fit for Jasper, please reach out to beagmom1@yahoo.com with questions. We do have an application process, but let's talk about him first before I ask you to spend the time filling it out. Thank you so much for reading this far. **All Shelter to Home animals are fully vetted per their age. We believe in pediatric spay and neuter.
