Not on My Watch: 36 Month Old, 17lb "Kitten" Needs Home!

Just about everyone wants to adopt a kitten, that's clear. It's easier, too, to find a home for a cat like Will, who was injured or a cat like Melody, who is geriatric. But what about the cats that fall in the middle? The cats, like Sylvester (below), a somewhat plain jane kitty, whose owners dumped him like used goods at a shelter that WILL euthanize him when they run out of space.

This poor guy needs OUT of this CAGE! He barely fits in it!

I saw "Big Boy's" Petfinder ad last night and my heart truly sank. To see this chubby monkey in a cage barely big enough to contain him made me want to bust him out so badly. At 36 months, he is a bit advanced age for a kitten, but he packs on tons of love in his big bones.

Sly is a POLYDACTYL (extra toes) kitty and has really began to seek out love and affection from the Shelter staff. This kitty would just love to hang out with you and watch TV or snuggle on the bed in the sunshine. If you live in the Northeast, you won't need a comforter with this bed warmer!

Sly has little hope of ever leaving this cage. Not only is he too old, but he's too black and black coated cats in the South do not get easily adopted due to superstitions and such.

I see white toes!!

If a licensed, NO-KILL, rescue group would be able to accept Sylvester into their program for fostering until he can find his forever home, I would guarantee a $200.00 donation* to cover his care. We can also do a fundraiser to arrange for his transport to anywhere in the country. We have a GA licensed Rescue Group standing by to complete the paperwork to remove this cat from the Jasper Co. Shelter. All you have to do is say, YES! and we will do the rest.

If you want to ADOPT Sylvester, I will personally cover his transport costs to your door. We will do a fundraiser to cover his boarding until he can be transported.

So what are you waiting for? Help this big lug out! He's only 36 months old!

Slyvester is UTD on shots, is FIV/FeLuk negative and neutered. Visit Sly on Petfinder!

*I was urged to change the original amount offered from $500 to a lower number to avoid luring a less than reputable group from stepping up just to get the donation and not giving Sly the care and good home he truly deserves. My apologies!

He's gorgeous! I hope someone takes him home.

I'm not sure what it is about Sylvester that draws me to him, but I just know that I want to adopt him. I'm in Arizona and am disabled with no way to drive even locally, so it could be a bit of a problem to get him to me, but my heart went out to him.

I currently am owned by 3 (rescued) cats and can find plenty of room in my heart for 1 more furbaby.

Please feel free to contact me if there is any way that I could adopt him or if you have any questions about me, my cats, and my living situation.

We can get Big Boy to you. Please email me so I can send you the contact person's information who can pull him and get him to your door!
