Amos here, full of love and spice and everything nice. I look like a little lynx cat because of my big tomcat cheeks, my docked tail, and plenty of scars which prove I've been a rough-and-tumble street cat. I'm super sweet but also I like to prove I'm a big, tough guy by wrestling with human arms. However, since I needed my canine teeth pulled, I'm a lot less furry-ocious. I've made it clear I'm also a real loving guy too. I do have some medical conditions we should talk about before you fall heads-over-heels in love with me, though. I am diabetic, which has been controlled by keeping me on a special wet-food only prescription diet. This is about $180 per month in food for me, but at least I don't need insulin right now. I also happen to love the food I'm on - so much so that I don't want to eat anything else! My other medical condition is I am FIV+, no doubt from my fightin' days on the streets. Since FIV is passed through puncture wounds like bites, the likelihood I can give another cat FIV is near minimal now since I don't have any canine teeth. Still, my immune system is compromised by this condition, and I am more likely to develop upper respiratory infections and cold-like symptoms because of it. Because of all this, I really need to be kept indoors-only for my own benefit. Plus, let's be honest, I'm ready to be a cuddle bug and retire to be a couch potato. I don't seem to mind other cats, and I really don't have a viable way to pass the FIV to any other cats now that I'm neutered and have had dental surgery to help my mouth feel better, so it would be okay if I move into a home with other kitties, if my future family wants to handle all of that. If you're ready to take on the most special and interesting cat that ever existed, come on by and meet me. I love company!
