My story

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

The Story of Socks and Star:
These cats had a very rough start in life. They were feral cats that lived under the deck of our house. Star the all-black cat is the mother of Socks, the tuxedo cat. Star was a very determined cat. She was always looking for food for her babies even in the pouring rain soaking wet. Then as winter came survival was getting harder. Even though we set out food she was still losing the battle, her tail got froze off and her babies froze to death except for one, Socks. He was still nursing and survived. That was enough, so we decided to take a chance and let the feral cats in the house. Hard to know what feral cats will do. Star was the easiest to win over. She is the sweetest little cat and loves to be pet. She is also a lap kitty. Socks is just the opposite, shy, scared, and does not like to be picked up or held but she loves to be brushed. She needs to get to know you at her pace. These cats have never been separated.
The owner has Leukemia.
