Yo Yo Sam's Story

Yo-Yo Sam, named after the notorious Yosemite Sam for his long and glorious mustache is looking for his forever home. He's the softest, purri-est, rip-roaring gato that has ever roamed the West. And despite being a Persian, he definitely roamed the West being found abandoned outside in Texas in a condition we like to kindly refer to as "a hot mess." He had fleas, ringworm, a yeast infection in his ears, a cut arm that required stiches, and knots galore. He came to Mother Gaia where we got him all cleaned up and back to his normal Persian behavior of looking beautiful and accepting admiration. <br/><br/>The only trick is that Yo-Yo Sam is not quite the usual Persian. The usual Persian loves to lounge, be admired, occassionally talk, and is friendly to everyone. Well, Yo-Yo Sam does all those things but he also does some "real cat" things too like jumping to high locations and stealing food. Particularly bread. He will rip a slice of bread right out of your hands when you least expected a tiny furry creature with a ridiculous white mustache to do anything athletic or naughty at all. <br/><br/>Sam loves everyone and everything. He cannot get enough human attention. He loves other cats. And oddly enough, he really, really, really loves dogs. He runs up to greet dogs, flings his tiny body against them for head butts and affectionate greetings and then continues on his way leaving the canine species entirely confused about what this weirdo cat just did. <br/><br/>Sam would like us to note that in addition to his favorite food being bread, he also really enjoys fish flavored wet food and anything labeled "salmon", "shrimp" or "crab." Its not his fault he has sophisticated taste - its in his genes. He does have a bit of a sensitive stomach but as long as he is maintained on his current wet food, he does just fine. <br/><br/>Sam is up to date on vaccines, flea-free, ringworm-free, yeast-free, and putting on weight. He is microchipped to prevent another adventure in the great wild outdoors. And he is ready to come home and be an integral part of your family: greeting everyone, having friendly (or sometimes demanding) conversation, finishing up any spare bread sitting around, and being one of the most spectacular mustaches Persians that ever lived.
