About Shinx

Meet Shinx! This young male cat is around 8 months old and has been on quite the journey. He arrived at House of Misfits with head trauma that led to seizures, but thankfully those have ceased. He then faced a stubborn inner-ear infection, which caused him to tilt his head. After further evaluation, we determined he needed treatment for FIP, and his turnaround was phenomenal. Within a day, Shinx was back to his playful, chirpy self, though he now sports a charming permanent head tilt that only adds to his cuteness. Shinx is a total sweetheart who thrives on human companionship and enjoys the company of other cats. Given his playful nature, he would be happiest in a home with another cat to romp around with. He's even on friendly terms with small dogs. After all the hurdles he has overcome, Shinx is ready for the next chapter of his life—a loving forever home where he can be cherished.
