Rocky is a gorgeous, sweet, loving, and incredibly affectionate 12-pound, one-year-old, Snowshoe Siamese cat looking for a loving guardian.

Rocky rubs against you, jumps in your lap and is very loyal to his human. He rolls on his back for belly rubs, and talks and talks.

He is very well-behaved in the home, uses his litter box and is an indoor-only cat.

Rocky was being fed in a family’s backyard for almost four months. He had been beaten up by other animals. He came into rescue intact and with a number of wounds.

He is now healthy in body and spirit, neutered and has all his claws. He is vaccinated for rabies and distemper, virus-tested negative, microchipped and dewormed.

He doesn’t seem to mind the company of other gentle-natured cats, and while he hisses if dogs invade his space, he is not aggressive. But all he really needs is one human to dote on him for the rest of his life.

To meet and possibly adopt Rocky, please contact friendsofpetraits@gmail.com for an adoption application.

His adoption fee of $175 benefits the Friends of Petraits Rescue. He is being fostered in Chicago’s Andersonville neighborhood.
