About Minnow
Minnow has been through a lot medically, spending most of his young life under the care of Alleycats & Aristocats. Despite a history of chronic ear infections and trouble breathing, Minnow’s playful and affectionate nature never faded. With a recent polyp removed from his soft palate, he’s now free of snoring, ear infections, and those scary breathing spells. Life has gotten a lot better for him, and his high spirits are obvious. Minnow is endlessly curious and needs another playful cat in the home to keep him company. He’ll zoom around the house, explore every corner, and then happily collapse next to people or fellow cats for a solid cuddle. Introductions go smoothly: Minnow does well with other cats, dogs, and kids when given a proper introduction. There is a chance the polyp could return down the line, so adopters should keep an eye out for symptoms, but the surgery was a big step toward a normal life. Minnow is neutered, microchipped, current on vaccines, and negative for FIV/FeLV and heartworm. His estimated DOB is May 31, which makes him a playful Gemini—never a dull moment. They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
