This is Zuteh! You can see that he has lived a tough life on the streets. His ears have been frozen so bad that there is almost nothing of them left. He has a BIG round boy head and a body that is small in proportion. And he’s black. So he has strikes against him already.
But Zuteh, he is a sweetheart. He may look rough but he has a tender happy heart that is so hopeful right now that he will never be abandoned outside again.

This is what we believe we know about his past. A man who lived in a trailer park had 8 cats that he fed. He was kind to them and he would leave his door open so the cats could go in and out. They had a caregiver and someone who loved them. And then the man moved away.
The cats were left to fend for themselves. No food, no water, no shelter. Not being neutered/spayed, they were targets for fighting and breeding. They lived a tough life.
And then a nice lady who lived nearby called us. So far we have trapped 4 of the cats. Zuteh is one of them. Every one of these cats has turned out to be wonderful, affectionate, happy to be loved, so grateful to be fed and warm. They start out a little suspicious but gradually they learn that they are safe and the people who care for them mean well. So they can be pet and they give love in return.

And Zuteh! He plays!!! He loves it when his foster mom gets the toys out and he can throw all cares to the wind and enjoy being a kitten again! Not have to worry about finding food or shelter for the night. Just playing, carefree and happy.
Zuteh still hangs out a lot in his ‘safe’ kitty carrier. He does come out for loving and he likes to be pet. But when he’s done with that adventure of the day, he goes back to his own little house to sleep safe and warm with a full tummy.
We know Zuteh is not pretty. But he has a huge heart that is ready to open and trust humans again to love him and to care for him and to never ever abandon him again.
He’s fine with other nice cats. In Anchorage and ready for a family. Call 980-8898
