Silly, Resilient, Foodie Evanescence is a recent rescue, and is starting to show his sparkling personality in the shelter. He is relaxing into affectionate pets, and making us laugh with his antics trying to climb the cat shelves and scurrying around like hes on a mission! He is playful at times, but mostly enjoys sniffing around - and eating cat nip! Go figure! Evanescence will give the cutest meows when the snacks come out! We have found this to be his Love Language. A lot of food for the man! He loves any and all treats, and will approach you to let you know. Evanescence came to APA! with a bullet lodged in his spine - and there is no doubt that he is a survivor with "Perseverance" coded into his DNA! He arrived in poor shape and unable to walk, but has made huge progress - he literally has taken the steps he needs and is relearning to walk. He is an adventurous boy, and is determined to get on with his life! The trauma to his spine gave Evanescence urinary incontinence; he is on a wet food only diet and needs his bladder expressed (that means gently pressing on it to help him go) a few times a day. Its pretty straightforward, and APA! will show you how and make sure you are comfortable with it. Caring for an incontinent cat is easier than you may think. Want proof? Check out this video: bit.ly/CatExpressionDemo Evanescence is an animated, funny, vital, and handsome guy! He likes things rather peaceful, and is looking for a loving home with people who can keep him on his schedule. He is a darling! Contact us today to arrange a meet & greet! All APA! cats are fully vetted, spayed or neutered, and have updated vaccines and a microchip. Lifetime support is offered by our Cat Behavior Team.
