Meet Dino
Meet Dino and you will fall in love and never forget him! Dino is a brown and white Agean tabby, about 1 1/2 to 2 years old. He was found as a stray in Midland when he came to a Good Samaritan's (Terry's) home to eat every day. Terry became concerned when Dino didn't come for a day. The next day Dino returned limping with gashes, cuts, and bites all over him. Terry took him to the vet, had him vetted, and contacted us.Dino got his name when the vet described his head was as big as a triceratops head. (Not really) Immediately I thought of the Flintstone's pet dinosaur, Dino, (The name fits, because Dino, he has a smoooooth, charming personality like Dean Martin, too! Whose nickname was Dean-o.)When Dino first came to us, he was so happy to have food and water on a regular basis. He won the clean plate award every day - everything in his bowl eaten or drank! He LOVED sleeping in his new fluffy, comfy bed.(See photo.) He slept soundly in his bed for about 2 weeks and didn't move except to go to his litter box or eat. He was so happy to be safe and just sleep, knowing everything was okay. He had no desire to do anything else. That says a lot to what he has been through.Dino has been with us a little while now and now that we know Dino .. what a love bug he is!!! When he first came out of his crate, he was afraid being around other cats - which makes sense, because of what he has been through - but he is a sweetie pie. He has a very easy-going personality and loves to be pet. He can be easily picked up, as well. Dino is also a talker - at times meowing to you about nothing at all, at times telling you really tall tales. (Ha ha!) He is just a joy to be around and would make a fabulous companion cat. He also gets along great - right away - with other cats.Dino is in a torrid love affair and bonded with another foster cat, Bailey.. They can constantly be seen together snuggling, grooming each other, and sleeping together. They will need to be adopted together. We have an adoption special for bonded pairs currently! Bailey has a tlit head from a previous inner ear infection; however, she requires no extra attention. She just walks with her head tilted to one side.Dino is ready to go home with an approved application. He is neutered, had his FVCRP and rabies vaccines, tested negative for feline leukemia, and is microchipped with a lifetime registration. No need to re-register every year and pay - it's been done for you! Interested in this precious boy? Let us know! [email protected] 540.717.4420
