Adopt a Less Adoptable Pet Week

This week is Petfinder.com's Adopt a Less Adoptable Pet Week

As hard as it is for Mommy (and I) to believe, I was considered 'less-adoptable' because of my age, the fact that I've only ever been an only cat and that I was declawed by my previous owner!



I was underweight, grumpy and had a very bad shave job, but Mommy knew when she saw my cute face, that I was destined to become a Monkey.



She adopted me from Gerdy's Adoptions and Rescues. Gerdy is a wonderful woman who takes on many 'less-adoptable' dogs and cats and makes it her mission to find them a loving forever home. Because she saved me, I want to feature one of the other cats at Gerdy's who needs a forever home pronto!

This is what the site says about the very handsome Gucci:

It wasn’t an accident, no one forgets a 19 pound cat when they move from an apartment!!! Handsome, big Gucci was discovered left behind in the apartment, forlorn and abandoned
This big impressive black Domestic Longhair is an IMPRESSIVE cat, a Gentle Giant who wants only to be given a spot in the sun and loved! Neutered, FIV/FELV tested negative, vaccinated, dewormed, Gucci has his own Gucci bag packed and ready to move in with you!

Dramatic in appearance and about 2 years old, Gucci gets along with other cats and likely could hold his own with a friendly dog! A friendly male, he is no cheap imitation, OUR Gucci is the Real Thing—a great cat!


I can't understand how someone would abandon this handsome Mancat! We are purring that Gucci, and all the other kitties and doggies at Gerdy's Rescue, get adopted soon.

Also, our good friend Tasha made us aware of another bunch of cute kitties that need help finding homes.

Mancat Monday

We have been absent for a few posts because Mommy says she was busy, busy. I guess I'll forgive her...as long as she doesn't make a habit out of it!



Both Bella and I have a vet appointment on Thursday night. Mommy found that the little sores on my head are also on various parts of my body and that I have been scratching and grooming excessively. She also found a little soft, movable lump on Bella's tummy flap, which she's concerned about. When she called the place that rescued Bella to see if their vet had seen that before, they told her she could bring her to their vet to be examined because she was still officially being fostered. Mommy said it was time to make it an official adoption and that she would take Bella to our vet. I guess that means we are stuck with her!



Gerdy, from Gerdy's Rescue said that because of Bella's age, they are going to waive the adoption fee and call it a 'compassionate placement'. All we have to do now is sign the papers and Bella is ours forever. We'll definitely have to use our allowance to donate to that nice rescue!

Since I'm a gallant Mancat, I'll go with Bella to make sure she's not scared and introduce her to our favorite people at The Animal Health Clinic (the girls at the reception give the BEST scritches). If they can happen to find out why I'm so itchy while I'm there, all the better.
