Romel's Story

Romel is a San Antonio kitty who found himself put outside after becoming accustomed to the good life inside. The owner was then going to euthanize him but a Good Samaritan reached out to us to help find him a new home instead- happy to help!<br/><br/>Despite looking like the epitome of Grumpy Cat, Romel has a stellar personality and is so so sweet! He was an only cat but in his new foster home with the Good Samaritan we've learned he's good with other cats! He was a bit scared of the large male cat but did very good with the smaller female.<br/><br/>Romel was put outside due to inappropriate urination habits (he pees on things), which started after the owner had children and instead of addressing with Fluoxetine, which routinely helps urinary habits, she made him an outside kitty. This issue is NOT happening in his new foster home! Romel also has some early kidney disease requiring an appropriate prescription renal diet.<br/><br/>Rabies, FeLV and FVRCP vaccines updated 3/25/2026. Currently weighing in at 5.3 pounds, but thin.<br/><br/>The pictures of Romel shaved are most recent. He became very matted as an outside cat and the owner tried shaving him at home, then the Good Samaritan took him to get groomed and they had to cut more for to get the rest of the mats. It will grow back!<br/><br/>Romel is being fostered in San Antonio, Texas by his Good Samaritan rescuer, waiting for a committed foster or adopter to cat call him up to Colorado!<br/><br/>Red Fern Animal Rescue offers a two week foster to adopt trial in your home before finalizing the adoption to ensure the animal is the right fit for you, everyone in the home, human & animal, and vice versa.<br/><br/>Red Fern Animal Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit foster-based animal rescue in Denver that saves animals from abandonment and neglect in South Texas for new lives in Colorado.
