My name is Lionel!

 Lionel came to us horribly matted. He needed a lion cut and a name, and so he received both.    Lionel is still regrowing his fur, but we were able to save his mane and tail.  He was probably a pet before his time on the streets.    He    hasn’t had a mat since returning to indoor living.
Lionel loves treats. In fact, he takes well to bribery and loves food a little too much in general. Lionel likes pets and rubbing against a human’s legs, but he’s wary of grabbing hands. He’s clearly been bitten at least once and consequently taken the twice shy part to heart. Lionel likes toys that allow playing from a distance - wands and teasers. Once he was able to relax in one of our community rooms, he struck up a friendship with Woody, another big guy who likes food too much. The two of them can often be found wrestling or grooming each other. 
Lionel  is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. As always, cat/kitten adoptions are free will donation to approved applicants. ****The first step in the adoption process is to complete the application at www.emmetcountyanimalshelter.org****
