About Shomo

Shomo is a remarkable cat with a gentle spirit. He came to the rescue needing his tail amputated, along with some challenges in bladder and bowel control. Despite these obstacles, Shomo remains cheerful and trusting, always assuming the best of everyone he meets. He adores greeting visitors and is particularly fond of crinkle bouncer toys, launching himself to catch them with playful enthusiasm, although his landings may need a little work. This sweet boy requires a special home, as he cannot urinate on his own and needs his bladder expressed every 12 hours. This process can be a bit tricky since he has a difficult bladder to manage, and he isn’t the biggest fan of having it done. A caregiver with strong hands is essential for helping him. Shomo also enjoys snuggling with both humans and other cats, making him a warm addition to a loving household. Shomo is available for adoption for $50. Located in New Prague, MN, Shomo is ready to find the right home that can offer him the care he needs.
