Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Kitty Junction is so, so happy to say that Bear has found his purrfect furever family!! Thank you so much Amy, Pete, Emily, Josiah, Nathan and Leah for seeing sweet Bear online, wanting to meet him and then falling in love with him!! The girls all love to brush him and Bear's favorite thing in the whole world is to curl up on everyone's lap:) He becomes so relaxed (as you can see from his picture) that they can take turns passing him from lap to lap without him even waking up;) He loves playing with his toys and especially likes waking them up very early in the morning to remind them its breakfast time;) His family absolutely adores him and says he has made a wonderful addition to their family:)
Hi!! My name is Bear and I am a beautiful long haired, all white male kitty with baby blue eyes. I am approximately 2-3 years of age. My rescuer saw me crossing a busy road in a bad area of SW Philadelphia and was so afraid for my life that she followed me to a mechanics garage where I had been seeking shelter. I was so filthy from oil and grease that I was thought to be an all gray cat when first found. I was pitifully thin, horribly matted and in desperate need of a bath to remove all of the grease and knots in my once beautiful fur:( According to the neighbors where I was found, my previous owners had moved away awhile ago leaving me behind. Whats even worse is that not only did my previous owners knowingly leave me behind to fend for myself, but that they actually thought I could considering the fact that I am deaf:( I cannot hear talking, clapping or even worse the sound of oncoming cars.
With lots of baths, grooming and good food, I have become a gorgeous kitty!! I am a super affectionate, outgoing guy who LOVES to be held. I give the cutest little mews when I want to try to get your attention. I am super sweet and love people - when my foster mom makes a motion up by her shoulders, I put my paws on her like I want to hug her and I wait for her to pick me up and carry me around with her:) Even though I can't hear, I do respond to hand motions and vibrations. I am very cat friendly too!
If you would like to be my special furever family, please don't hesitate to fill out an adoption application for me at www.KittyJunction.org or if you have any questions at all about me please email KittyJunction@aol.com!!
