Meet Petey, the delightful little furball who's ready to steal hearts! This charming male grey tabby and white domestic short hair is a survivor at just a whisker over five months old! Born around March 11, 2024, he’s had quite the journey! 🐾✨ Petey was rescued from the Genesee Animal Control, and let me tell you, his story is one of resilience! He faced hurdles from the get-go, battling something known as feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). But with top-notch care and treatment, he’s bounced back and is more affectionate than ever! 💖 He came to the rescue with a few bumps in the road, including some pesky parasites that have been treated. But that’s not all—Petey had a rare dental malformation that caused his adult teeth to grow in sideways, poor baby! 😿 Most of his teeth were removed, alleviating a lot of his pain. And during this dental adventure, the vet found a nasal polyp that was causing his upper respiratory symptoms. Don’t worry, this brave kitty has been put on a special fiber-dense food to keep him thriving! Now, let’s get to the best part—his personality! Petey is an absolute social butterfly! 🦋 He adores humans, pets, and fellow furry friends alike. This makes him the perfect candidate for a therapy cat, as he brings joy wherever he goes! Just ask anyone who’s met him during school visits; he’s practically the star of the show, always up for some love and a cozy nap! 💤 Petey's ideal household would have other cats and calm dogs, making him a great companion in a multi-pet setting. He has had all his vaccinations, he’s been neutered, microchipped, and had his flea/tick/heartworm prevention taken care of! Just a gentle reminder—do consider rechecking a fecal sample within 48 hours after taking Petey home; if any parasites show up, the rescue has you covered without any extra cost! 🩺 He’s currently ready for his forever family at an adoption fee of $125. 🏠 You will also receive a copy of his microchip registration and medical records when he comes home with you. Should you decide to welcome Petey into your life, take it slow at first. Start with one room, then gradually let him explore more of your home. Remember, he is a gentleman who loves calm introductions! Treats at the door can go a long way to making new furry friends! 🍬 This kind-hearted boy is waiting for someone to love him this much and more!
