My story

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

FIV +

Hi! I'm Diego.

I am a very sweet and affectionate brown tabby male.

I am a flirt and love attention.

I love to give kitty kisses and to lay with or on my humans.

I am a terrific work buddy and will help you by displaying myself on your keyboard as you try to type.

I am very patient and will gently tap you for rubs.

I love belly rubs, head and ear massages, rope toys and strings of all varieties.

I am very smart and curious, so you would need to watch me around open doors.

It takes me a little time to warm up to other animals and I can be a little bossy with them. I want to be in charge.

I have been around other cats and dogs and will be okay with them once I get to know them.

I am sensitive to unfamiliar scents. I would prefer that you change your clothing after visiting other animals and I may need to time alone when pets in my home return from the vet or groomer.

I love chicken and turkey canned food, but will eat beef and seafood too.

I like to drink water from my pet fountain instead of a bowl.

I am well-behaved and know to stay off counters and tables.

I love to sit in the window when it's open to enjoy the fresh air through the screen.

I have FIV and am doing well.

More about this rescue

The Hancock County Humane Society is a no-kill*, non-profit animal shelter. (We are not affiliated with, nor do we receive financial support from, the Humane Society of the United States.) This organization has been in existence for many years and has always been staffed entirely by volunteers and funded entirely on donations from the local community. It is our goal to find permanent safe and loving homes for the pets in our care. We would also like to promote community education and awareness, including the importance of early spay/neuter of a pet and the importance of a pet wearing I.D.

*No-kill meaning healthy pets with good temperaments are kept until adopted no matter how many years it may take. We diligently attempt to treat unhealthy pets whenever possible.
