Health
Vaccinations up to date, spayed / neutered, special needs. He is paraplegic, so his back legs are paralyzed. He can’t get into the litter box on his own yet, so he wears a baby diaper that needs to be changed as needed (about 3-4 times a day.).

Good in a home with
Other cats.

Meet George
Curious George is a 10-month old rocketman who will make you laugh on the daily. He loves taking naps, zooming around the house, and playing with toys. He is a pest control expert and loves to watch movies (his favorite so far is Wall-E.) He is an indoor cat, and is afraid of very loud noises. He may be a little shy at first, but once he gets to know you, he’ll be more than happy to show you his wild side. George’s personality is unmatched, and has the best zoomies around town (astonishingly fast). When he is finished watching Wall-E with you on the couch, he’ll take the most graceful nosedive off of the couch and take a well-deserved nap.

He is paraplegic, so his back legs are paralyzed. He can’t get into the litter box on his own, so he wears a baby diaper that needs to be changed as needed (about 3-4 times a day.) When he poops (it has a distinct smell) it’s better to change the diaper right away. He can be left alone for a few hours at a time, just be sure to change him before you leave. Other than his diaper changes, he eats/drinks/sleeps/plays just like any other kitty. He will occasionally become vocal when his diaper changes take longer than usual), but he is generally a pretty quiet guy. So far, he seems to be okay with other animals - he’s just curious!
