Domestic Long Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Springfield, Missouri

Named after a great pharaoh, I carry myself with unmistakable confidence… even if I’m just a 9-pound housecat with three legs. I'm Ramesses II.... born on April 14th, 2024, and my story is nothing short of extraordinary. I survived an injury that should have ended my life, but instead, I rose from it. My surgery went smoothly, the infection stayed contained to my leg, and against all odds, I came through without complications. There’s no denying it—I’m one in a million. I truly shouldn’t have survived, but I did. Now I rule my domain on three legs, and honestly, I’ve adjusted with ease. I move fast—faster than you’d expect—and I love to prove it by attempting daring dashes out the door. In my mind, I’m a powerful panther… not a slightly dramatic tripod cat. I get along well with cats and children, but dogs, absolutely not. Every ruler has boundaries. Food is the quickest way to earn my loyalty. I LOVE meals and treats—bring me anything to eat, and I will instantly decide you are my favorite human. When I’m not enjoying a feast, I’m usually lounging in my big, fluffy bed. It’s my throne, my sanctuary, and my favorite place to spend the day. I’m quite snuggly when the mood strikes, but even when I’m not curled up in your lap, I’ll stay close by like your little shadow. And if I feel like I’m being ignored, you’ll hear about it. I’m loud, and I will meow until I get the attention I deserve.

I need to let you know that I am FIV positive, which is a bit of an unlucky twist in my story, but so far it hasn’t slowed me down one bit. I keep living boldly, just as any king would. I may have three legs, but I live like a legend.

My adoption fee is $25. This fee includes my vaccinations, FIV/FELV testing, de-wormer, spay/neuter, microchip, and flea preventative. Fill out an application at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROS/Cat if you would like to meet me!
