Howdy! My name is Colonel Panther! I was named Colonel because KFC fried chicken was used to convince me to be rescued! I am a handsome black DSH/ Bombay mix fella who was born in May 2017. My visual assets are a shiny and sleek black patent-leather coat (except for a white 'sweet spot' on my tummy) and big round copper-penny eyes.
I’m very sweet and love to cuddle, which makes sense since Bombay mixes are often called Velcro kitties because we are so sociable and like people so much. Although I haven't been around kids or dogs in my foster home, I get along great with the other foster kitties. I am particularly bonded to Tao, who was rescued with me and who may be my daddy!
Life hasn't always been a bowl of cherries for me because somehow I became a homeless stray. A Good Samaritan started feeding my mama Zavalla, Tao, and me but decided that we were too sweet to remain outside in the elements as well as with all the dangers of cars, dogs, and coyotes. So the Samaritan brought us to our future foster meowmy, and she graciously took us in to safety. Now I’ve learned how nice it is to be inside and have a soft bed, brimming food and water bowls, as well as toys!
As much as I like it here in my foster home, I'm ready for a home of my very own. I would do great in a place with another kitty friend or two! In fact, it would be great if someone wanted to adopt Tao and me as a bonded pair. We are available individually or together, but two is always more fun than one. And we can keep each other entertained while you are at work or on vacation.
I hope that my sleek black coat, affectionate nature, and hardscrabble story have piqued your interest. Please arrange to come meet me, and if you pick me, I promise to love you furrrever!
Please don't be superstitious of black cats! You know, Groucho Marx once said, 'A black cat crossing your path signifies that the animal is going somewhere.' Buster's Friends makes a concerted effort to rescue black cats and kittens from shelters because they are five times more likely to be euthanized than any other color of cat. However, many people who have had a black or Bombay mix cat before end up adopting another one because they seem to have such wonderful personalities and are emotionally stable and well balanced. To find out more about Bombay mixes, watch the attached 2-3 minute You Tube video that appeared on Animal Planet or Google 'Cats 101 Bombay.'
Colonel Panther is updated on shots, neutered, dewormed, microchipped, FIV/ FeLV negative, and ready for his indoor-only home. No de-clawing permitted.
