Meet Peanut, the heart-stealer from the streets of Detroit! 🐾 Just when winter was about to unleash its icy grip in February 2025, Peanut's life took a dramatic turn for the better. Rescued from an uncertain fate, this tough tom cat arrived at PAAW with a painful neck wound and labored breathing. Talk about a rough start! Yet, fate had other plans for Peanut! After a tireless search and a heroic trapping effort, he landed in the caring hands of a foster parent who nurtured him back to health. In just weeks, this grungy fighter morphed into a sweet, affectionate lap cat! 🥰 Who knew a little TLC could unveil a purring machine beneath all that grime? Peanut absolutely loves being brushed and petted, soaking up all that love he missed while battling life on the streets. And guess what? He’s already using his scratching post like a pro! What a delightful little companion! This brave boy is about 7 years old and is FIV+, which he likely got from his tough life outdoors. But don’t let that deter you! FIV+ cats can live just as long and happily as their non-FIV counterparts. With a little understanding and proper introductions, Peanut could harmoniously live alongside other felines. 🐱❤️ Peanut has seen the darker side of life, but now he deserves a forever home filled with warmth, love, and all the delicious food he could ever want! Could you be the home that Peanut has been dreaming of? Come and find out! This darling has a special adoption fee for FIV+ cats, making it even easier to welcome him into your family.
