Booker

Loving Siamese cat in need of a single cat home

Booker is a 6 year old siamese cat who is the most affectionate, loving cat I have ever seen. He was brought into the vet hospital where I worked when he got sick one day. He had a very treatable liver issue, but his owner was unfortunately unable to take care of him.

He was brought in for euthanasia, but we offered instead to take care of his medical needs and nurse him back to health and give him a new home. He was treated for days in the hospital, and even needed a feeding tube. He was able to make a 100% recovery and is now completely healthy.

Booker is by far the sweetest cat I've ever seen. He is extremely snuggly, and loves pets anywhere - including his belly! He purrs non stop, loves the attention, and will snuggle close whenever you need.

The only reason we are rehoming him is because he's a very dominant cat and wants to be the head of the house. We have another cat who is also very dominant, and they butt heads too often to give either of them a good stress free life. Booker does GREAT with my 120lb dog, does not hide from strangers, and is great with kids as well.
