Nelson's Story

Nelson is hoping to find his forever home! He is around 4 years old and is a curious and playful guy! Nelson sadly had to have all his teeth removed due to the condition they were in, but we are sure he's feeling much better now.<br/><br/>Nelson can be affectionate and typically prefers to have your undivided attention. Although, he can get upset when you stop petting him. Nelson is currently on Fluoxetine to help him feel more comfortable, and it's made a great improvement for him! He has been feeling much less insecure and no longer gets upset when you go to leave/stop petting him. It has also allowed him to feel more comfortable around the other cats. Although he can now tolerate the other cats, he would much prefer a home without other cats. Nelson is looking for a calm home without children. We are hoping someone willing to work with him will open up their heart and home to this cute guy!
