Meet Fitzy — Meow Mobile Cat of the Week

Springfield, IL (CAPITOL CITY NOW) -Fitzy is a stunningly handsome all white senior gentleman seeking a forever family to love & spoil him.  He was originally adopted from SCAC 9 years ago and is now 10 years old.

Fitzy has been through some trauma. His human passed away with no next of kin and no one willing to take Fitzy in, so this sweet guy landed back in a shelter cage at SCAC on November 3.

We are hoping his second stay with us will be short. Fitzy is ready to go home with you – neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, and negative for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) and Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV). His adoption fee is only $25.
