Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Tom was rescued through a foster agency in Los Angeles and has travelled to New York and now Maine. He is shy early on but then loves to cuddle once he gets to know you. He has lived his whole life with another rescue cat but they are not particularly bonded so can be separated. Tom would most likely thrive in a family with no other pets. Two members of our family now get asthma as a result of cats which is the only reason why he needs a new home. Otherwise he has been an important part of our family for 8 years.

He always lets you know when he wants pets, but tends to be pretty independent. He has lived his whole life with another rescue cat but they are not particularly bonded so can be separated. Two members of our family now get asthma as a result of cats which is the only reason why he needs a new home. Otherwise he has been an important part of our family for 8 years.

Story
We took in BamBam for a family member who could no longer keep him last summer and he hasn't adjusted well here. He is super snuggly and loving, but unfortunately he's very territorial. He would do best in a home without other animals or small children because of his territorial peeing. He is not aggressive to people at all but he is mean to our other cats which is why I suggest a pet free home. He's a great cat, up to date on everything and neutered
