Magnum FIV+ INDOOR ONLY Domestic Short Hair Mix Stockton, CA

Meet Magnum! Magnum is a total sweetheart who’s lived a rough life on the streets until he was rescued and now he absolutely loves being loved on and loving the life of a house cat. When we received Magnum into rescue he was a hot mess. He was immediately treated for ear mites, fleas and open wounds around his neck and back. Magnum has a severe flea allergy that had rendered his back and neck bald. The itching from the fleas and mites was so intense that he had carved himself open around his neck with his nails trying to stop the itching. It wasn’t healed for several months and he had to wear a cone to keep from reinjuring himself. When he went for his neutering at UC Davis, it was discovered that he had a broken tooth that was causing him discomfort. A time later, we were able to have his dental surgery completed. It was discovered there were actually two teeth that required extraction, and the surgery was successful with no further incident. Magnum is FIV positive, which means his immune system is compromised but other than that is a healthy boy and can live a normal healthy long life. Magnum absolutely loves being brushed and will lean right into it. Magnum is great with people, but not so great with dominant male cats. He is good with kittens and small dogs. Sometimes when he isn’t happy about something he will hiss, but it it’s just to show his dissatisfaction with the situation. He has never intentionally scratched or acted aggressively towards anyone. It’s just his way of telling you he’s not happy. He is not your typical “cute kitty”, he’s rugged from his years on the streets and he’s got these eyes that are easy to fall in love with. Magnum would be a lovely addition to the right home! If you think you can be everything Magnum needs to live a happy safe, indoor only life, please submit an online application at www.secondchancekitty.org.

All Second Chance Kitty cats are free fed a quality dry food with low or no grain and are STRICTLY INDOOR ONLY. Studies have proven cats live longer, healthier lives and on average require less financial burdens at veterinary offices when they are kept indoor only. There are so many predators out there, both human and animal and it is sadly unsafe to let them roam unattended.

All of our babes come altered, microchipped, vaccinated, rabies (if age appropriate), FeLV/FIV negative, dewormed, flea treated, litter box trained and full of love. Our adoption fees are a minimum $150 donation. Anything beyond $150 helps rescue another babe.

Adoption isn't an impulsive decision, it must be thought out carefully. Owning a cat is a 15 to 20+ year commitment. Can we afford a cat? If we're renting do they allow pets here? Is there a pet deposit? Can we afford the pet deposit? What if we get sick, what if the kitty becomes ill and has to see a veterinarian? Kitty requires routine check-ups, annual vaccines, quality food, litter and toys, can we afford this? These are all questions a responsible pet owner must ask themselves. If you can make this type of commitment please take a moment and visit our website at www.secondchancekitty.org to submit an application.

Second Chance Kitty is a local non-profit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to assisting cats, kittens and an occasional dog, escape a life of abandonment, abuse and neglect.
