I am enjoying the second life I was granted, and I would love to find a permanent home with one or more of my kitty friends. I just need to find the right family who are comfortable with my medical past and willing to put in the effort to care for an immunocompromised baby with a penchant for getting in some trouble!

Hello, I'm Kodama! My foster parent named me after the tree spirits in Princess Mononoke because I have a permanent head tilt. I am a special needs kitty because I am both deaf and immunocompromised. I was found on a freezing autumn night outside a hotel, and the vet told us I had FIP. Although FIP is nearly always fatal, my foster parent and the rescue did not give up on me! They began the rigorous process of helping me heal, and after many treatments, I am happy to say I am doing amazing!!

Despite my rough beginnings, I am a ball of energy! My foster parent thinks I have the energy of 3 kittens sometimes! The only kitty in the house who can roughly match my playfulness is Last Day Dog Rescue foster and my friend, Kabuki! Sometimes Erebus will play with me, too. Because I am deaf, I have trouble picking up on clues when I play too rough. Please be patient with me. If I get too riled up or accidentally bite, please distract me with a toy, and I will be happy to pounce on that!

I require a home with no children as I am a master escape artist, barreling through doorways, jumping into danger (like an open oven!!), and generally testing the limits of my 9 lives. That said, my favorite thing to do besides play is cuddle! I will fall asleep on your lap while you play games and curl up in your arms while you sleep in bed. I love being carried around in a sling, too! Washing the dishes? I'll help! Folding the laundry? I'm in!

Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal.

Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster's dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.

The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label.

Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first. We appreciate you stopping by.
