Truman

Hello,

My name is Laura and I live in Oceanside. I am in urgent need of re-homing my beloved cat Truman as I was laid off during the government shutdown and need to move out of my apartment by 12/1. I can't take Truman with me and I'm heartbroken.

I adopted Truman at 8 months old from Helen Woodward Animal Center. He had been rescued from the street by an anonymous caring and kind individual. He is now 4 years old, an indoor cat, litter box trained, and in excellent health. He is neutered, no fleas, no parasites. He doesn't bite, claw or hiss, and is docile as can be. Since I adopted him he has been under the care of All Pets Animal Hospital in Encinitas, and the techs there love him. I can provide his medical records upon request.

He is an affectionate lap cat and loves to snuggle. His favorite treat is a little pinch of turkey or tuna,. Once he gets to know you he will follow you all around.

Thank you for your consideration.
