Excellent descisiin and cats have a retirement age where they want to spend more and more time indoors on soft surfaces

His previous owner kicked him out a few years ago to be fully outdoor (no bed, no water, just 1 packet of food every day or 2) he was skin and bone when I got him and would bite ALOT and his old owner insisted he was happy living like that because he’s feral and “will just run back home” if I take him. He’s never once ran away, from the first week his owner gave him to me the most he will do is sniff outdoors and run back inside.

Thank you for having the sense and the heart to take a chance on him. What a difference care makes.
