Mutt can't believe his luck!

Mutt was trapped by our volunteers a week ago. He had been living under a deck with a colony of feral cats for some time, but it became clear as soon as we had him in the trap that Mutt was not feral. This sweet boy charmed everyone at the veterinary clinic where we took him to be neutered and to have his ear mites taken care of. Fortunately, we were able to place him into a great foster home right away, and Mutt is truly shining now! He loves hanging out with his foster family, and "talks" to them all of the time. He is also getting along well with their cat and their two dogs.

Mutt is a sad example of a male cat who was once loved. Chances are good that once he hit adolescence and wasn't neutered, he began to wander and look for fights with other males. Perhaps he was even kicked out of his home because his aggression and need to mark his territory became an annoyance. In the photos above, Mutt is in rough shape, and it is entirely due to a failure to neuter.

We are thrilled that we can rehabilitate Mutt and give him a second chance!
