Chicken - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Titusville, Florida

Hi, I'm Chicken!
I'm a sweet orange boy who has had a pretty confusing start to life. One day, someone brought me in a dog kennel, left me in the lobby, and walked right out the door. I didn't really understand what was happening, but thankfully, the people here took me in and quickly realized that I was sick.

It turned out I had a urinary blockage and needed emergency surgery. It was a scary time, but I'm doing so much better now! I'm recovering well and am finally ready to find my forever family.
I should tell you that I'm still a very scared boy. When I'm nervous or overwhelmed, I may try to run away and hide. I'm going to need a family who understands that I may not trust them right away and who will give me the time, patience, and quiet space I need to feel safe. I promise, underneath my nerves is a really sweet boy who just needs someone to show me that I'm home.

Because I've had a urinary blockage before, my future family will need to be mindful of my urinary health. I'm currently eating a special urinary diet, and I'll be going home with the food I'm eating now to help make my transition easier while my new family gets settled and finds a veterinarian. My future vet can then help my family decide what diet and long-term care plan is best for me.
I know I may need a little extra patience and care, but I've already been through a lot - and I'm ready for the next chapter. I'm hoping that chapter includes a cozy home, a patient family, and someone who will give me the chance to show them what a wonderful boy I really am.

I didn't choose how my story started... but maybe you can help me choose how it ends.
