SAM - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Muskegon, Michigan

Young SAM started hanging out, looking for handouts. How he became a stray is not known. Was he lost? abandoned? or born in a feral colony? We do not know. Fortunately, he showed up at the right house, and the kind person brought him to the shelter before life on the streets started to wear this vagabond down.

SAM came in scared and did not ask for pets, which is understandable since he immediately was given flea/tick meds, meds for worms (standard for every cat that comes in without vet records) plus he was neutered! Who wouldn't be scared? But Sam soon accepted being petted and having his head and chin scratched. We do not know what SAM has known in his short life, so we do not know his impressions of dogs, cats, or children. He does seem to be ok with the other shelter cats, and he is young enough to adapt to a non-aggressive dog or cat. SAM also is young enough to enjoy playtime. He should be a fun playmate for children old enough to know how to use gentle touch, no squeezing hugs, and not to force SAM to be held if he doesn't want it. Holding any cat that wants down is, to them, trapping or restricting them, and they will respond by bites and scratches. You cannot herd a cat to go where you want and you can't force a cat to do anything. 😸

Handsome SAM is young and has a long life ahead of him. It may have started out rough, but he is destined for the life of a pampered pet, not a street cat! He just needs a family who wants to spoil him and grow old with him!!
