Noodle

We found Noodle in our front yard on a cold October morning back in 2023. He was very tiny, and we have random strays in our neighborhood, so we assumed he was the runt of a new-ish litter. After getting him all checked up and neutered, we were informed that he was born with FIV. Due to this, he has lost his little teeth over the last couple years, so his tongue sticks out sometimes. We have also kept him indoors 24/7 in order to keep him safe. And to keep him from tearing up the furniture, he has been kept primarily in a cage. He is as healthy as he can be, and always loves attention…especially being brushed.

However, at this point we have decided that Noodle needs a better environment where he can run around and spend his life happy. We are not asking for any fees, just a loving and understanding home.
