DARKNESS

Endless pets make for endless purrs with this big hunk of love! Darkness–that’s his name– wants all love! He’ll happily sit next to you and even flop over for some super gentle side rubs and sing songs of contentment with his purr. Even with only 3 legs, he’s sooo happy.

Life wasn’t always this wonderful for this sweet boy. At one point he had a nice house with a kitty friend and a wonderful family and then suddenly it was gone. He was put outside with no option to come back inside his home. Confused and sad, this is how he would spend several years of his life. He became withdrawn from wanting human attention. Yes, he was given food, water, and some sort of shelter where he lived but it wasn’t the life he once loved and still wanted.

Then one day he came home with a badly broken leg. He was rushed to the vet where it was concluded that there was no possible way to save the leg. He underwent surgery to amputate his back leg. That’s when Darkness came into a loving foster home with people to dote and love on him. In spite of this new mobility challenge, he quickly showed just how sweet and loving he is. How much he has missed that human love. And his appreciation and love for affection blossomed!

Darkness doesn’t mind other cats if they give him his space and don’t try to be his friend. But he would be just fine as the only cat in the house. He also will do fine with a mellow older quiet dog who isn’t rambunctious and overly energetic. He loves the bottom cubby of his cat tree for long naps and after having a snack he seeks out his person for that one-on-one time. He will be fine with nice older children. A safe yard where he can spend some time outside will be good for him to have the joy of the natural world at its best where he can be out if he wants. But he never wants to be stuck outside all alone in the cold again.

He is around 10 years old and in Palmer. Please call 907-350-8089. Thank you!
