She is great with our three kids and dog. We are moving and would like to find her a good, loving home. She is litter box trained.

Story
Gryffon is a sweet boy. He loves people and is good with chill dogs. I am moving and will be living with my mom who is allergic. He is on special urinary tract health food (Purina) as he gets crystals in his urine if he doesn't. He loves to lay in your lap but doesn't really like being picked up. His auto-clean litter box, water fountain and food dish will acompany him. I have a female cat that will also be rehomed that he invades her space and they fight. That is the only experience he has with other cats. He may do fine with a non-territorial cat.

Story
Dad was found with his girlfriend and two kittens in an unsafe area by S IH-35. He got along well with his girlfriend and kittens, but they were scooped up and found homes. Dad was fixed and put back on the streets before anyone noticed how friendly he was! A nice human stepped in and noticed his health was deteriorating outside and had no constant source of food or water. He was taken inside to focus on his health. Turns out, he LOVES being around people! Dad thinks toys are ok but prefers getting pets and sitting next to a loving human or snuggling at night! Although Dad tested positive for FIV (weakened immune system), FIV cats tend to have normal life spans when cared for and the majority never experience complications. FIV is only transmitted to other cats through blood transfusions and serious penetrating bite wounds. FIV cannot be transmitted to humans or other animals. Dad would be the healthiest as an indoor cat but a bonus to have access to an enclosed outdoor space.
