Great Cats for Great Homes

  My name is Smokey, now. I was originally named Squeaker, but my foster mom changed my name to something more regal. I'm a very handsome gray kitty, 10 years old and came from a very stressful situation. My owner passed away a few months ago and we weren't found for 4 weeks. I was left in the house with her, but with no food or water. I survived on water alone. When I came to my foster home I was very scared and had lost weight. My foster mom allowed me to "come out" at my own pace. I stayed in her fireplace wood pile for about 3 weeks only coming out occasionally. When I did come out, she was very patient with me and just loved on me. I am very sweet and affectionate and just want to sit in your lap and go to sleep. My foster mom has two other cats. One boy, Charlie and one girl, Cassie. I don't like being around Charlie as he scares me, so I hiss at him. I've always been an only kitty in the house and would prefer to go back to that. I've never really been around dogs, but my foster mom sometimes babysits doggies. I just hide. I respond most favorably to Temptation Treats and we're still trying to find a kitty food that I like. I think if I had my own house, I'd be better all around. My owner's ex-husband has offered to pay for food and any medical expenses for 3 months. My foster mom has taken me to the vet and I have a clean bill of health. I do have a micro chip, which we will transfer over to you. I do have one negative right now, but I'm sure a new home with me being the only kitty, will "cure" my problem. Even though my foster mom has 4 litter boxes, which she cleans several times per day, I still on occasion pee on things. I do use the litter boxes and I don't think I did that before. My foster mom has Feliway diffuses around the house. I really need a home of my own and I hope you will give me a chance. I promise that I will love you and be loving with you. Thank you. Love, Smokey! PS I have a smaller version of a Catio that my previous Dad built for me that would come with me. My foster mom has a large one and I love being outside / inside the Catio to watch the birds and the squirrels. I also have a video of me that my foster mom took, but it wouldn't upload on this platform. It's really great because you can see me playing and also my full body.
