About Rocky

Rocky is a charming adult male cat who came to Second Chance Whiskers with an ear injury. After surgery to repair his ear, he's now at risk for chronic infections, requiring monthly ear flushes that he has learned to tolerate well. Once a former street cat, he's now a laid-back couch potato who enjoys treats, a warm bed, and the occasional head scratch. Rocky gets along well with cats and dogs, but he is not suitable for homes with children. This handsome fellow is looking for a special someone who can provide him with the care he needs. If you're interested in meeting Rocky, please reach out to schedule a visit at PetSmart on 98N in Lakeland, Florida. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
