Vinny Chums **special needs**

Vinny Chums is a super-floofy, 3-year-old, long-haired buddy. He is loving, affectionate, and very attached to his favorite humans, though shy around new people. He loves to snuggle on your chest, in your lap, and lay next to you and share your pillow at night. Vinny is a BIG cat with the tiniest, sweetest squeak of a meow. His foster mom spends a lot of time kissing him on the nose (while he closes his eyes and enjoys the attention). He is all-white except for a gray mohawk on his head, and he loves to be brushed. Vinny recently had skin cancer removed from his ears, which are now back to being healthy pink, but will forever be uniquely-shaped-- only making him more adorable. This type of skin cancer is likely to return in the next 1-2 years and develop new cancerous areas in his ears, nose, or mouth. We hope that Vinny has wonderful years ahead of him, but his adopter should be prepared for a long -or- a short time with him and have the priority in mind of being a source of comfort and love during what may be a shorter-than-average life. Vinny will do best in a stable home without young kiddos and he will likely do well with mellow, friendly cats and/or dogs. Vinny be a great choice for a one-cat household, too, as long as he has you to spend lots of time with. Neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, tested, and his adoption includes a voucher for a free vet exam. For adoption info, call (805) 550-9064 www.FelineNetwork.org
