Story
This is a courtesy listing, not a SPOT Rescue cat. For more information regarding Biscuits, contact Samantha below.. Mr. Biscuits has been roaming our property in Wynola. With no microchip, collar, and no nearby neighbors laying claim to him, his fosters started feeding from their patio- finding him ravenously hungry. Grateful for his regular meals, he rapidly allowed us to pet and then hold him. His namesake comes from his tendency to constantly knead the ground (“make biscuits”) when he is given attention. He is now ready for the full, cushy, domestic life he deserves- free from the harsh realities of the elements, uncertain meals, predators, and vehicles. Although he would be a good indoor/ outdoor cat, he seems more than ready to kick back and settle into a fully inside lifestyle. He was checked for ownership by the SD Humane Society, given a three-month preventative flea treatment, vaccinated, and neutered. His tipped ear indicates he has been fixed. He is an approximately 1 year-old grey/ white tabby male who is proving to be a top quality snuggler (nestling himself in his fosters' arms) and is just beginning to show an interest in toys for play.

Story
I adopted Truman at 8 months old from Helen Woodward Animal Center. He had been rescued from the street by an anonymous caring and kind individual. I believe he was someone's beloved pet and he got out one day. He is now 4 years old, an indoor cat, litter box trained, in excellent health, and does great in an apartment. He doesn't bite, claw or hiss, and is docile as can be. He is an affectionate lap cat and loves to snuggle. His favorite treat is a little pinch of turkey or tuna,. Once he gets to know you he will follow you all around. He does great at the vet, All Pets Animal Hospital in Encinitas, and the techs there love him. I was laid off during the government shutdown and need to move out of my apartment on short notice. I am heartbroken I cannot take Truman with me. I have his complete medical records. He's current on vaccines, flea and parasite free, and all he needs are nail trims and an annual checkup. He has no medical conditions and is not on any medications.

Story
This is my 4 year old baby Paco, born on 3/11/2021, and he is originally from Fort Worth TX. He is a hefty boy but loves to play with any toy, he gets the zoomies when you give him catnip, he loves his daily wet food, and his favorite activity is to the watch the birds on the TV. We call this Cattube lol. I am looking for someone who will be the perfect owner for my boy. Paco needs to be in a single cat home due to serve aggression towards other cats. As a cat mom, I have tried everything in my measure to help fix the aggression but after many vet visit, two different calming medications, cat diffusers, cat calming collars, moving food & litter box stations, blood & urine test, & have tried to re-introduce my cats to him twice. My effort has not changed. He is so so so loving towards humans. His favorite thing to do at night is lay his 16 pound self on your chest before you go to sleep. I am looking for another cat parent who will love him, play, & care for him like I do.
