DOB 6/26/23
Hey there, everyone! I’m Sammy, a handsome, incredibly affectionate, and wonderfully talkative blue lynx-point Siamese mix fella who, just like Siamese purebreds, is happiest when I’m close to my favorite hoomans. I'll cheerfully follow Foster Meowmy from room to room to ensure that I can supervise her daily activities and simultaneously give her a running commentary to ensure that she never feels alone. Whether she’s cooking dinner, working from home, or just relaxing on the couch, I’ll be right there, convinced that everything is more fun when we’re together
Some cats are born to live outdoors, but I assure you that I am not one of them. I originally showed up at Foster Meowmy's community cat feeding station looking like a grumpy, intact survivor of numerous caterwauling fights. She trapped me because she assumed that I was feral -- until I made it abundantly clear that what I really wanted was NOT freedom but a family of my very own. After surviving the hardest chapter of my life, I was more than ready to leave the streets forever and again be the spoiled house cat I had been in my past. My clipped left ear may tell the story of where I’ve been recently, but my tender, devoted disposition tells the story of where I belong.
Once Foster Meowmy brought me to the safe haven of her home, my wish list has been refreshingly simple -- a bowl of wet food, an occasional Churu treat, a soft bed, and – most of all -- someone to love. Unfortunately, the consequences of surviving the hardscrabble life became a reality when I tested positive for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV+), which I probably contracted from the deep bite wound from an intact male cat. (Unlike Feline Leukemia, FIV is NOT passed on "casually" by sharing food bowls and litter boxes with other household cats.) Being FIV positive means that I should live an average life span as long as my dental health is routinely monitored and prompt attention is given to any urinary-tract or upper-respiratory infections.
Now I’m just waiting for someone to adopt me so that I can write the brightest chapter of my story -- complete with a happily-ever-after forever home where I’ll never have to wonder if I’m loved again. Arrange to meet me today! I can’t wait for us to have cozy conversations together because, as you’ll soon find out, I have plenty to say!
