Hi, I'm Heathcliff - Adoption Fee Paid!!

I'm an adult brown tabby and white male.

I'm an extremely sweet and affectionate boy who has overcome a lot of pain and adversity. I was found dragging my bloody and infected front leg with my toe bones exposed. I was probably caught in a leg trap, which is a cruel device that inflicts great suffering on animals. I had buckshot throughout one side of my body (that's right, someone actually shot me), an injured eye, scar tissue on my testicles, and my lower canine teeth were broken. My leg couldn't be repaired so it had to be amputated, and now I'm a "tripod" kitty. Despite everything I've been through, I am incredibly friendly and I truly adore people. I am diabetic, so I'll need a home that will be able to provide me with the care that an extra sweet kitty like me will need. I'm looking for a responsible adopter who will keep me safely indoors and give me all the love I deserve. As a victim of terrible cruelty, I've survived an indescribable amount of pain and turmoil. Are you the kind and loving person who will give my story its happy ending?

Thanks to a generous donor, my adoption fee has been paid!

My adoption fee is $0.00.
I have been , vaccinated, microchipped, and I've received routine treatment for internal and external parasites.
