Meet Nook!
This little senior gentleman was surrendered to Phillys animal control shelter after his former owner reported that he was suddenly withdrawn and did not want to be petted. He entered the shelter with a pretty nasty skin infection from an untreated flea allergy. His belly and back were bald and itchy, no wonder he didn't want to be touched! Now that the flea infestation is gone, his coat is filling in beautifully (though will take some more time to fully fill in), and he has had a chance to heal, he is the most lovable little man! Nook is so deserving of a loving retirement home and now is your chance to find your tiny soul-pet!
Nook is around 12-13 years old and loves to cuddle, play, and will follow you all around the house like a polite shadow. Youll always find him purring! Nook is always happy to be around people and will flop on his side and show you his belly whenever you enter the room. Nook lived with young children in his last home. He isnt currently living with other animals and would need a slow introduction to new dog and cat residents, which we recommend when adding any new pet to your home. Nook is one-of-a-kind and will fit in any home looking for a mild-mannered, social little cat who wont be afraid to greet new guests and who will always look forward to you coming home after a long day at work. Could he be yours?
Nook has been fully vetted since coming to the rescue. We recommend staying on top of routine monthly flea treatments to avoid another allergic reaction. He otherwise doesnt require any specialty care.
Nook is available for adoption through City of Elderly Love. He is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. Interested in adopting him? Visit cityofelderlylove.org to complete an online adoption questionnaire!
