Look at this beautiful boy!

April 26
Merrick Long Island NY
*Matteo Needs a Loving Home!

** At first I hesitated to send this PLEA...a 9 year old kitty, hit by a car who can no longer pee on his own...he needs someone to express his bladder 2x daily??? I truly questioned the quality of life...BUT through lots of feedback and knowledge of this cat's Winning Purrsonality, I have come to believe MATTEO is enjoying LIFE!!! There have been NO OFFERS!

*MATTEO DESERVES to LIVE and be LOVED!!!*
He has adjusted well to the help he needs...In All of OUR contacts can we find that ONE kind and unconditional person who will ADOPT MATTEO?????????

CONTACT is:
rking1539@charter.net

this is matteo; i found a version of his posting that is easier and needs less editing:

CONTACT IS rking1539@charter.net

his injury, again, is from a car accident.

http://bit.ly/matteoface -- he's really black, rather than blue-gray, with the white accents.

EMAIL AND QUESTIONAIRE FILLED OUT BY OWNER BELOW ABOUT MATTEO:

Thanks you so, so much for your email. Attached are pictures of our
beautiful loveable Matteo. Also I answered your questions. He is loving,
sweet but a bit shy. He never scratches or bites. He is very good with
expressing.

Please help us.
Many thanks,
Jody

Hi MC and Christine,
Is this kitty in a rescue in NYC or is it in a home?
I was going to email the contact and see if I could give them some suggestions but my email is not working. Maybe they would be interested in joining the forum and we could help keep this guy in his home ?? /Jean
PS: He really should be expressed more than 2x a day. Urine should not be left in a bladder for 12 hours.
I agree 9 is not old I have 3 kitties who are 17 years old.

I emailed the contact a couple of weeks ago and just got this answer:

Hi, Thank you so much for your e-mail. I’ve been away and left another contact in my absence. Upon returning, I was told that Matteo has been placed at Angels Gate by the owner and hopefully, this will work out. (I am an individual who was trying to help place the kitty and am so thankful that so many cared). My best, Sue King

Posting this thread to their Facebook page to see if we can get an update on him.
