Milo

Milo is surely one of the most unique cats you'll ever meet. He's a big cheeked orange tabby with white mittens that even include separate thumbs! Even his back feet have extra toes! And to top it off, he has a naturally short, bobtail. His physical differences aside, Milo is a protector of peace, with a calm yet still playful presence. As a former tomcat, "adopted" but left outside to fend for himself even for food and water, Milo had a rough first year or so of life. As an unneutered male roaming the streets, it was inevitable that he got into fights with other cats. A neighbor who leaves out water and food for outdoor cats noticed that the exceptionally friendly and playful Milo had lost weight and was lethargic. Luckily, the neighbor reached out for help and his fosters got him into medical care immediately, resulting in a complete recovery! An unfortunate effect of his time outside that cannot be cured, however, is that Milo is FIV positive. This is not a death sentence as Milo should still live a long and healthy life. He can and does live easily and safely with other cats without transmitting this disease. FIV is typically only contracted in blood drawing or deep biting confrontations, such as two unneutered males posturing over territory. Milo is neutered now, and has never appeared aggressive or mean to his fosters, not even when he's picked up and given hugs and kisses! Milo is so cute with his little meows and when he's taking care of his babies, especially Clara (KRLA-A-7224) and Reji (KRLA-A-7225). But he also plays with the "teenagers" Hisstopher (KRLA-A-72230, Daisy (KRLA-A-6844) and Mini (KRLA-A-6843), and he is always listening, ready to step in if someone starts playing too hard. He'll play with other kittens or by himself, but he's mostly just happy lounging around most of the day and eating! Milo deserves a safe home where he'll be cared for and loved as much as possible. He's such a unique, handsome male, who despite being brought up outside, is loving, trusting and sweet with people and other cats. Come meet and fall in love with Milo today!
