A 16-year-old cat, Hoonie, had a rough life when his parents passed away. He had to leave and go to a shelter to be adopted again. Hoonie has seen a lot of changes in his life lately, but one thing has remained the same — Hoonie’s favorite stuffed animal, a gray and white cat, is still at his side.
The owner’s daughter wanted to find the cat a good home, as both she and her son were allergic. So Hoonie and his stuffed cat went to a shelter run by Alley Cat Rescue in Maryland.
Hoonie is in excellent health, so Grant hopes that his advanced age doesn’t deter potential adopters. Hoonie and his buddy have been at the shelter for about a week, and they are always together. The cat is now available for adoption, but the adoption center says that whoever chooses to adopt this cat must also take the stuffed animal with him—the cat’s favorite toy.
