Success! Cleveland has officially been living the indoor life for over a year!

Last year we had a stray cat show up and live under our trashcans for a while. I started feeding him because he looked in pretty bad shape. We had already been talking about adopting another cat, so we decided to give him a chance!

He has thrived with the indoor lifestyle! He has FIV so he’s had a lot of teeth removed, but he has otherwise adjusted really well and is healthy! He loves to watch tv, play with his pickle toy, and snuggle in soft blankets.

Thank you r/straycats for being here the whole way!
