Blink 182 American Shorthair Mix Scituate, MA

Blink-182, a rather emo kitten, has a super sad story to share.

This guy was purchased by a family when he was just a tiny baby, about 8-weeks-old. The dogs in the home tried to eat him. He was surrendered to us so that he could try to find a safe home.

When Blink came in he was rather unconsolable. He would try a lot and was feral acting, not liking human comfort. At the time we had a nursing mom and her babies. They accepted Blink like one of their own. Blink bonded with this family, loving his cat siblings.

We had him and his "sister" ready to be adopted. Very tragically, Blink's sister had a genetic deformation and passed away. We were devastated at the loss but more so for Blink.

Now we have Blink-182 once again looking for a home. His new home must have a young, playful cat. Blink LOVES cats. He is still a shy guy so no kids please. He has gotten lots of love in his foster home but is still wary of people he doesn't know. This is why Blink MUST have a cat to be his best friend.

We don't like to make people sad or look for sympathy for our pets, but this is Blink's reality. This guy will likely never be a party animal but will be an amazing bestie for another young cat.
