Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Cheeks is one cool dude! He was discovered hanging out at a feral colony when the feeders soon realized Cheeks was not a "feral" cat! So, El Dorado Humane Society took him to clinic where he was fully vetted and is now looking for his furrever home!
He is a big boy with chubby cheeks and hefty paws and his weight tips the scales but it's all muscle :)
Cheeks is a lovable amiable cat that loves to be petted and play with his toys. His foster family adores him, he gets along great with their child. Unknown how he is with other cats. Dogs are iffy as he has swatted at the family dog.
Cheeks loves to be with people! He even talks with his people - a very engaging boy!
You'll notice Cheeks' left eye...he had Entropion eye (where lashes curl inward and irritate the eye) but our vet did surgery to correct the problem and his vision is just fine :) Cheeks also tested positive for FIV but that's not as scary as it sounds. FIV is feline-specific; contracted through aggressive fighting. It's not contagious to people or other animals and no special care required! Talk with your veterinarian to learn more.
Cheeks is handsome and easy-going - a very affectionate cat that would be a wonderful companion! So, if you have room in your heart and home please contact Julie at 916-599-1206 (text or call).
