Better with Age: Cat of the Week

Hello there! My name is Oscar and boy do I have a story for you.  I came from a loving home – it was supposed to be my fur-ever home.  Tragically, my owner was mugged and later died, so I came to Small Miracles with 3 other kitties. They all got adopted, but I've been here for over a year, waiting for someone to notice me.

You see, I'm a senior cat, about 11-years-old, but I still have lots of love to give!

I’m not as young or as colorful as some of the other cats here, but that doesn’t mean that I’m any less deserving of a home. I know there's someone out there who will appreciate me.  

I love to sit on your lap and will be an attentive companion. Because I am a bit nervous at the shelter, I am over-grooming, which means my fur is not as beautiful as it will be once I have a home to call my own. Please give me a chance!  

I cannot wait to go to my new home, curl up in your lap, and live happily ever after.

Stop by Small Miracles today to see me!

Small Miracles is a nonprofit, no-kill cat and dog shelter in Ellicott City. Each week we will feature a cat that needs a home. If you happen to pick up one of these lovelies, post a picture and let us know! Visit the Cat of the Week blog to see which cats have been adopted and which are still looking for a home.
