Story
We rescued Shohei from the streets of Herrin in August 2024. He was in bad shape- flees, ear mites, and worms. All of that has been taken care of. We also had him neutered and got him vaccinated. He is very sweet- all he wants to do is sit in someone’s lap and purr. He looks kind of tough, so his sweet demeanor was a pleasant surprise. Unfortunately he does not get along with other cats, but he loves to snuggle our dog. We will only re-home to someone who wants an indoor cat.
