Oscar's Story

Oscar is a free-spirited cat who enjoys a good chase to capture his prey- or even just a fun toy! He is as fast as the wind and eager to prove it to any fly, squirrel, and mouse toy alike. He is super smart and will be the first one to run to the door to greet you or your guests as people come in. He is very clean and litterbox trained, having no accidents. Oscar would love to have a home filled with toys, companionship and snacks! <br/><br/>Given his health and history, Oscar would do best in a child-free, pet-free home. He's a lovely, charismatic guy, but he is not above letting you know when he's had enough pets or attention with a little love-nibble or a bop of his paw. He otherwise is a friendly, playful, and hilarious little orange ball of fluff!<br/><br/>Our boy Oscar is indeed a special guy. He has a history of occasional coughing, and through diagnostics we've learned he has an enlarged heart +/- possible mild asthma, but with PAWS's limited resources we can't confirm an exact cause for the cough and are mostly monitor his general health. Oscar does get some help twice daily from his trusty inhaler, and it's done wonders to significantly lower his coughing frequency! Coughing aside, Oscar seems pretty happy at this time, and he will benefit from an understanding adopter who can keep up with his care needs and let him remain at his happiest by being an only pet.<br/><br/>------------------------------------<br/><br/>This cat is currently located in a PAWS foster home. Please email their foster parent at littleangelslastdays@gmail.com to learn more about them! In order to meet with any cats in foster care, you will need to have a fully processed and approved application first. To get the adoption process started, please submit an adoption application online at phillypaws.org/catapp. <br/><br/>If you have any questions for our adoption team, feel free to email adoptions@phillypaws.org or call 215-238-9901 ext.30.
