At about 3 years old, Moscato has lived all but the last few months mainly on the streets, not neutered. He had a home where he could enter and exit as he pleased, along with many other cats. From just this one home, many kittens were born and a large colony developed. Over the past year and a half, without the assistance or cooperation of the tenants of the home, caring community members have tired to help this colony with many being spayed/neutered and homes found yet the reproduction continued and the colony size barely affected. When the tenants of the home left the residence, Moscato and many others were left outside with their openings to the only home they knew now being secured. The caring community members continued to assist these abandoned cats. To date, ALL have been spayed/neutered and are in their homes!
At intake, Moscato's very long coat was full of mats and he had to be mostly shaved. He underwent treatment for worms and parasites and received the neuter and vaccinations he should have had a long time ago! And now.....he is in his home, although initially under protest! When mom came to pick him up, he hid in the rescue and was nowhere to be found. She left and about 30 minutes later he is noticed strolling around, walking right up the carrier she had left! He was confined and mom came back to get him. We still have no idea where his hiding spot was!!
We've already had updates on Moscato who adjusted quickly laying on dad's lap, sleeping in the bed, living the dream he deserves. He will be reunited with his brother after some adjustment time. That's right, this sweet mom and dad, took his brother off the street a year ago! Congratulations and thank you to all involved!
