My story

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

Blind & Deaf

DOB:7/28/2017

Special needs: Blind and deaf.

Meet Lucky! The Cat, the Myth, the Blanket Lover

Lucky has been at Colony Cats since August 2023, and, well… he’s starting to wonder if this is just his life now. Not that he minds too much—he’s got his routines, his favorite spots, and of course, his beloved blanket girlfriend (yes, you read that right). But deep down, he’d still love a real home of his own.

Now, let’s address the (adorable) elephant in the room—Lucky is a unique guy. He’s deaf, has limited vision, and, for reasons known only to him, he prefers to pee in a bowl instead of a litter box. But honestly, who are we to judge? Everyone has their quirks.

Despite his special needs, Lucky navigates his world like a champ. He was born deaf, so he figured out how to adapt as a kitten, and while his vision is limited, he can still sense light, darkness, and general shapes. Once he gets familiar with his surroundings, he moves around like a pro—even making little calculated jumps when he feels like it.

Lucky is also a master of the pbbrt (that little chirpy trill cats make) and absolutely loves rubbing up against your legs. When he’s in the mood for affection, he’ll sniff you out and follow vibrations to track down the nearest source of love. He’d thrive best in a predictable home—an apartment or a small, single-story house where he can quickly get the lay of the land.

If you’ve got a soft spot for quirky, lovable misfits, Lucky might just be your guy. Plus, who wouldn’t want a cat with a blanket girlfriend? Come meet him—you might just be his lucky break.

Come meet me at the cage-free adoption center! All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV. **If interested in adopting me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process. Due to the large number of inquiries received, we are unable to respond to emails quickly.**

Go meet their pets

The Colony Cats Adoption Center is a completely different experience in 'sheltering' homeless companion cats. While most of our felines still live in foster homes, we now can bring them out into the public with our cage free adoption center. Cats can do what comes naturally- jump, run, climb, and play; but only until they find their way into your heart and home.

We have pledged not only to make this a completely different experience for the cats, but also for the public.
While we strive to make the adoption center as beautiful as possible, the cats within our care remain our top priority. Our firm belief as an organization is that every homeless cat deserves a chance because every cat matters. We hope that you'll come by and share with us our vision.

More about this rescue

Colony Cats is an all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose primary mission is to address cat overpopulation in central Ohio through public awareness and spay/neuter efforts. Since 2002, our organization has facilitated spay or neuter of over 6,324 animals.

Specialized help for feral, stray and abandoned cats is a core element of our programs. We assist compassionate caregivers who are feeding and watching over homeless cats by providing TNR (trap-neuter-return) and other support services including food, shelter, vaccines and additional vet care for injuries/illness, as well as educational resources.
We also have a network of foster homes for friendly, adoptable cats and kittens - as well as dogs and puppies that we encounter while assisting cats - that have been rescued.
