My story

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

*** Diesel is in a foster home ***

Grey & white bicolor, long hair, neutered male, born approx. 3/30/16, #18993

Cats: okay solo or with large male cat
Dogs: lived with previously
Children: all ages

BACKGROUND: Diesel lost his longtime home through no fault of his own when his previous guardian had a change in living circumstances. No longer able to keep her beloved felines, she reached out to The Rescue House. Diesel and his two siblings moved into foster care to receive lots of TLC and heal his broken heart. A true romantic, Diesel can't wait to meet his forever-and-ever family!

PERSONALITY: Diesel is a huge hunk of fluffy love! Our BIG boy is super sweet and very sociable. He adores human company and will often join in on the conversations. This chatty lad has plenty of stories to share with the crowd. He also can be handled or held without issue. Proud of his flowy coat, Diesel loves being brushed and pet. It's a great way for you two to bond and keep him looking majestic! Experienced with kids, he enjoys being around the action and noise. He's a confident fellow who seldom hides, except when his nemesis is on the prowl... the infamous vacuum! For fun, he likes to tussle with feather toys, pounce on the cat chasers and climb up the kitty tower. While in foster care, Diesel was diagnosed with mast cell tumors. With medication, his prognosis is very good. Healthy otherwise, this spry guy is expected to have a normal lifespan. Ever the optimist, he took his vet visits as opportunities to make friends. The clinic staff absolutely adored him! We have no doubt that Diesel will win over your entire family!

COMPATIBILITY: Diesel would do well as a solo kitty or could live with another large male cat. He didn't seem to warm up to the two female cats in his foster home. He has lived with a dog before and could likely adjust to a feline-friendly canine. Diesel also was raised right alongside the family's young children and does well with kids of all ages.

With his long locks and brilliant personality, Diesel is quite the catch! Will you be the lucky recipient of his never-ending love and affection?
