Goya Domestic Short Hair Glendale, AZ

Goya is a beautiful tabby and white kitty who is about 5 years old. Goya came into the rescue from a hoarding situation where he and over 100 other cats were all living in a single-family residence. He had been living in this situation for a number of years, possibly since he was a kitten. He was malnourished and under-socialized when he came into the rescue. With care and patience, he has attained the appropriate weight and learned to accept love and pets, although he still is a little shy. Goya does have a playful side, and after he is comfortable in his environment, he enjoys playing with wand toys and other kitty toys. Changes in environment are scary to him, so upon his arrival in a new home he will need patience and gentleness while he acclimates and grows to understand that he will be safe and cared for. Once he feels safe and comfortable he is a lap kitty. He does well with other cats after a proper introduction, but it is unknown how he does with dogs. Because of his difficult life experiences, he may not be a good fit in a home with very small children. This fellow has had a hard life and is looking for someone with patience and understanding that will keep him safe and love him for the rest of his life, and in return he will give you his heart. His adoption fee is $80.
