My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Benson: A Special Cat Seeking a Happy Home

Meet Benson, a loving and resilient feline with a unique perspective on life. Despite his visual challenges, Benson enjoys his relaxing life. He's looking for a patient and understanding person or family who can provide a safe and secure haven.

Benson's Personality: Benson is an affectionate cat who craves attention. He loves being petted and brushed and then will go chill in one of his favorite spots. Currently his favorite spot is a Chewy box that's on its side. He absolutely loves to feel the outdoor air while sitting at the screen door at the front of our house when the weather is nice. Benson meows when he is lonely, wants companionship or food.

Special Needs: Having lost his left eye due to glaucoma and having limited vision in his right eye, Benson is mostly blind. A calm and quiet environment makes him feel comfortable and secure.

Ideal Home: The perfect person (or family) for Benson would be one that:

  • Other pets in the house: He would do best as an only pet. While he gets along with the other mellow male cats in his foster home, but would love to be an only pet so he can get all the attention.
  • Is patient and understanding: Benson needs a home where his unique needs are respected and accommodated.
  • Provides a calm and quiet environment: Loud noises and sudden movements can be distressing for Benson.
  • Is willing to provide ongoing care: Benson may require additional care and accommodations as he ages.
  • Possibly has experience with special needs pets: If you have experience caring for a pet with special needs, that would be wonderful. However, if you love and understand cats, you could be his purrfect person.

With patience, love and understanding, Benson will thrive and bring joy to your home. Thanks for reading about this special guy!
