About Smokey front declawed

Meet Smokey, the charming ten-year-old all-black front declawed house panther on the lookout for a cozy forever home. After being surrendered alongside his brother when their owner transitioned to a nursing home, Smokey faced heartbreak as he lost his sibling to what appeared to be a stress-related heart attack shortly thereafter. This left him feeling lost and frightened. The kind folks at Angel's Wish recognized his need for a peaceful environment. In a calming foster home, Smokey has rediscovered his playful, affectionate side. He enjoys tasty treats and long naps—particularly when curled up in someone's lap. He appreciates gentle petting, especially on his soft tummy, though he does cherish his alone time occasionally. While he hasn't met other cats since his brother's passing, Smokey could likely adapt to another mellow companion with the right introduction. Large dogs or busy households with small children may not suit him, as he still experiences moments of anxiousness. After all he's endured, Smokey dreams of a quiet space to chase toys, lounge, and bird-watch from a window. Smokey also has a grade two to three heart murmur, which may be exacerbated by stress. A vet visit post-adoption is recommended for proper care. This brave little guy needs someone to help him turn the page to a new chapter in his life. Will that be you?
