TROY is a NEUTERED male who is a “perfect pet”. This 7 year olds’ only flaw is having a disgraceful previous owner!! ” No time or money” is the excuse for letting this lovebug go. But did have time and money for 7 years of TROYS’ life!!! Makes no sense…Please, have a heart and foster or adopt this guy!! Email the Helpdesk NOW at [email protected]
The experienced volunteers will connect you with rescues that can pull for you up to the minute!!! Don’ t let TROY be another statistic!!! He’s been here before and may not make it again unless he’s helped…foster..adopt…it’s more rewarding than money!!
A Staff member writes, “Looking for the perfect housecat? The perfect companion who you can cuddle with after work but is fine being home while you’re at work during the day? Then Troy is your man, a 7 year old mellow guy who was originally here several years ago, but is back because of unfortunate circumstances with his family. Troy is a very friendly cat and after only a few minutes is leaning into my scratches, purring like a steam engine. Come meet Troy today!”
