Meet Vinnie! This charming fellow was quite the character, attempting to sneak into the Bavarian Inn Lodge in November 2023. It seems he had a knack for attracting attention, catching the eye of the Lodge's COO, Jim Engel—who just so happens to be one of the founders of Pet Angel! Those wonderful Lodge employees took Vinnie under their wing for the day, and the next thing he knew, he was brought into the rescue. A search for his family revealed that he had spent most of his life as a stray cat, lovingly cared for by a family in Frankenmuth who couldn’t bring him indoors. But now, thanks to Pet Angel, he’s ready for a brand new chapter as a house cat! Life on the streets can be tough, but Vinnie is more than ready to embrace the cozy comforts of a loving home. His enthusiasm for playtime is absolutely infectious! Whether it’s chasing toys, wrestling with his human pals, or turning just about anything in the house into a plaything, Vinnie’s playful spirit shines through. He adores all kinds of toys—jingle balls, yeowww toys, felt mice, and the infamous stick toy that gets him bounding around the room with joy. This furry dynamo also has a knack for giving affectionate ankle rubs and rolling around on his favorite rug—just pure bliss! 🐱✨ Now, it's important to know that Vinnie considers himself an alpha cat. He has a bold personality and likes to take the lead. So if you happen to walk by, be prepared for some cheeky grabs! He needs a home that appreciates his sassy side and can handle his playful antics, ideally with children over age 12. While he hasn’t interacted much with other kitties at Pet Angel (most are a bit meek for his taste), he might get along with a more submissive feline friend. Look out, though: he’s not a fan of dogs! Those four-legged furballs make him a bit anxious, so a dog-free home would be best. Vinnie is also on a mission to find a strictly indoor-only home. After spending so many days on the streets, he dreams of being spoiled in the comfort and safety of his own abode. With a hope as big as his loving heart, he can't wait to find his forever family who will shower him with love and let him be their cherished companion. Rest assured, he’s already been fixed, microchipped, and is up-to-date on all vaccinations, with negative results for FIV/FELV.
