Eclipse - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Piedmont, Missouri

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

“Eclipse” has come a long way from being in a kill pound to being in rescue and to learning to trust. He's not completely there yet but by letting potential adopters decide rather than us limiting his options, we are listing him. His only real problem is that he does not like to be picked up. It does

make it hard to put him in a carrier but we did it and were able to get him fully vetted and ready to be adopted. He does like being pet so that usually means, given a home situation, he would likely trust his own human in his own home much quicker than remaining in a situation where he competes with so many other cats. And anyone that knows cats, also knows they just about always have quirks of one type or another.

That's sometimes what makes them interesting, fun, and appealing.
