Profile
Catsanova A1099547 is a male gray & white DSH feline who was abandoned where the finder feeds cats in the Bronx. They stated since his arrival yesterday the other cats are scared to come out to greet them or even eat. Also they stated Catsanova is sweet and loves being with people which is why they believe he was a house cat. Catsanova also appears to be injured on his left hind paw and the finder isn’t able to care for him, didn’t want him to get worse from being outdoors and thought it best for him to be brought in. The finder stated Catsanova ran up to them when he saw/heard them and allowed them to pick him up and place him into a carrier.
During intake Catsanova allowed all handling. He allowed to be scanned (-), collared and taken pictures of (he’s got such a handsome face). Catsanova head butted, purred and rubbed his face/head on my hands as I was taking his picture. He didn’t seem to mind being picked up/held at all and was placed into a kennel with ease where he retreated to his litter box to “go”.
