Miraculous 21-year-old CAT in need of a good home

Chicago IL

Description

Milo has the best disposition of any cat out there. He is very old, 21 -- which is considered a "super senior" in cat parlance, but is in great health. Milo belonged to a neighbor who recently died. I was asked to keep him for a few days, until his daughter picked him up --but that was over three months ago. The cat, a lion-like orange tabby, knows how to light up a room. He wakes up, enthusiastic, whenever anyone walks by his bed and follows us as best as he can. He likes to watch people cook and dance, but especially loves any leftover chicken. A gentleman, he always uses the litter box. I have to go on an extended work trip and cannot take him. My neighbor's daughter suggested I put him down, but he's just too healthy for that. He's got some goo in his eyes, but that comes and goes. There is no reason to take him to a vet, he's too old for treatment. But, he has a very strong will to live and, with the proper home, might make it into the Guinness World Book of Records. If there is anybody out there who craves the comfort of a cat, but doesn't want a kitten tearing things up, Milo might be perfect for you.
