Crookshanks (AKA Roy)

It’s been a year since we lost our 23 year old kitty, and almost a year since we rescued Crookshanks (Roy). Beautiful, strong orange tabby. Broken toothed, pieces of ear missing, battle scars everywhere, FIV+, terrible digestive issues, wounds on his neck from nervous scratching, living for the first three months wearing the “Cone of Shame”. He’s still not 100% certain we will keep his food dish full or that we will open the door

Libby

Hi! I’m a wonderful, little, mostly black, female kitty. Someone found me in their backyard on the day before Saint Patrick’s day out in the cold and took me to Kitty Connections.
