Story
This is Cinnamon, he is 1 year and 7 months, he loves to be petted and cuddled, he does listen when you call and come to you, he is neutered and he has all of his required shots. We have two pets in the home and due to pet costs they havent had a check up months, we can no longer afford to keep them both. Cin does have anxiety and starts to hiss at unfamiliar scents. He would need an experienced pet owner that can teach him to adapt to a new environment. We dont have any dogs or kids so we dont know how he would interact with either of them. He has a brother whom he loves to be around but that is the only other pet in the home. He loves wet food especially the one with gravy, weve been feeding him Fancy Feast, he also loves purina kibble for adults, its what the vet recommended. We are not asking for any money, we just want to find him a good home and with a owner who will be more than willing to help him adapt to a new environment and unfamiliar faces and scents. Thank You!

Story
I was giving this cat from my sister who she named Genesis. Genesis is 1 yr old and very clingy and loves to sleep. She’s trained and an indoor cat but loves to look out doors. Her breed is unknown as I have her medical records if needed. I’m looking for my cat to be rehomed in a calm and safe environment without dogs if possible.
