We are excited to tell you about this special 3-year-old little boy, Cliffy! He was rescued off the streets as a stray and certainly just in time. He had some significant neurological issues and was also diagnosed with Toxoplasmosis. His finder thankfully saw a will to live in him. He’s had a long road to recovery but he’s now healthy!

We are looking for a special adopter for the sweet and special boy. Because of everything he endured, Cliffy has some degree of vision loss and is mentally challenged. He has made amazing progress and has gone from falling over with a severe head tilt to now just having short moments of instability when he’s anxious. Cliffy loves other cats and follows their lead and doesn’t mind dogs if they give him a moment to feel out his surroundings. He has gained 3 lbs since coming into rescue and loves to eat! He enjoys wet food mostly but will snack on dry.

Cliffy will need a calmer house with an adopter who will give him constant reassurance while also giving him time to adjust. In the end, Cliffy is your typical orange tabby with an extra sparkle to make someone very happy.

All NAWS cats are spayed/neutered, micro-chipped and up to date on vaccines.
