Owner: Terri
About Me: This is my third (and forever) home. I was left at a vet's doorstep due to insensitive people not wanting me because of a congenital knee issue. After some x-rays, I was ruled neither in pain nor needing surgery, but I have a permanent limp. I then lived at the vet's office until one of them felt sorry for me and took me home. Unfortunately, a marriage between two vet workers led to a huge pet family and I made the cut to find a new home. I am now king cat at my new home. My mom thinks somewhere between every patron giving me treats at the vet's office and having to share with seven brothers and sisters at one point created my obsession with food. I take great joy in knowing someone missed out on owning a terrific cat.
