Meet Shimmy! This handsome boy had a rough start in life, abandoned in a small New Mexico town. His fur was so overgrown and matted that the shelter couldn't even identify his sex, leading to his initial mistaken identity as a female named Nika. They deemed him "feral," but that couldn't be further from the truth. Now, after an escape from the shelter and a good grooming, Shimmy has blossomed into the biggest lover. He’s been socialized with dogs, cats, kids, and people of all ages. The vet has confirmed he was neutered at a young age, showing that his original humans did at least one good thing for him. Shimmy is ready for a new family and his next adventure. Could that be you? The adoption fee is $750, which includes transport to the Midwest, Northeast, or Southeast.
