Donatello

Is he an Italian sculptor or a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle? Well, our Donatello has enough energy to do both! This work of art is a curious and energetic kitty who is looking for his forever home. Donatello truly is the best of both worlds. He is an affectionate guy that doesn't mind kicking back and enjoying the finer things in life. He is also a spunky, playing machine that will gladly tussle with crinkle toys, pipe cleaners, or a good laser pointer. Whether he has the energy of a crime fighting reptile, or is as calm as a true artiste, Donatello will surely put a smile on your face! We recently found out that Donatello has ringworm. While this is a little bit of a bummer, this diagnosis hasn't dulled his sparkle! Ringworm care can actually be a breeze with the right set-up and if you have the time to dedicate to it, but can be a bit tedious since it can spread easily to any living creature and requires some caution to prevent that. Ideally we would love to find a home without any really young kids or other pets, just to limit the risk of exposure, unless the home has enough space to keep everyone fully and safely separated. PAWS provides all of the medications and other treatments needed at our clinic, so please read through the info linked below and if you feel like your home would be a fit you can apply and reach out to us to learn more!
