Yeah, yeah… I know. I look like I belong in a cat food commercial. Please try to stay focused.

The humans recently informed me that I was “a little scruffy” and “needed help grooming.” Rude. Personally, I prefer the term distinguished. George Clooney doesn’t explain himself, and neither do I.

Unfortunately, my aging hips make it a little harder to keep up with all this luxurious fur, so the humans decided I needed a “spa day.” There were brushes. Clippers. Personal violations. At one point, I considered filing a formal complaint.

Still, I suppose they did an acceptable job. I’m now cleaned up, looking sharp against my will, and back at Pet Supplies Plus waiting for someone to realize I should be spending my retirement years stretched across a heated blanket instead of living in a cat condo.

I may be an older gentleman, but I’ve still got plenty of love left to give — along with a few opinions, a lot of charm, and some truly magnificent whiskers. All I need now is a home worthy of my distinguished presence.

Many of you may recognize me from earlier this year. I came to the shelter at 18 years old!! The shelter vet gave me a clean bill of health and the shelter found me a forever home! I am now living the best golden years of my life full of love. They could never have given me the support without all of you!

When our human lost her home and could no longer care for us, the shelter gave us a soft place to land and stay together. They even found out my sister was so grumpy because she had a horrible tooth infection. Once the vet took care of it she was so friendly again!

This year’s official Hancock County “I Voted” sticker was designed by one of our very own local students, 8th grader Olivia Summers from Weir Middle School! ❤️

When my momma and littermates rejected me, the kind staff and fosters helped keep me alive! They advocated for me and taught me to eat on my own. Now I am growing and thriving!

The scared ones.
The neglected ones.
The seniors.
The puppies and kittens.
The animals who arrive needing medical care, patience, and a second chance.
