Hi – my name is Hamilton & I am a 6 year young Gentle Man! and here is my story… In 2004, as a young kitten, I was adopted by a family from Bide-a-wee and they had a microchip implanted in me at that time. BUT – they never registered the microchip and Bide-a-wee acknowledged it was their chip but has no records of what cat they put it in, so it is useless – I could not be reunited with my family. I spent all of my life with this family. But somehow, during January, 2010, I found myself outside in the freezing cold winter starving and without a family. I have no idea what happened – did they dump me far away from home, or is it possible that somehow I got out and got lost?

So, I was wandering up and down Round Swamp Road going from door to door meowing and tried to get into many of those homes. Many people fed me, but no one would let me in. I was persistent and kept going back to the homes not only for food, but with the hope that someone would take me in and protect me from that brutal cold weather.

Although no one would take me in, one lady felt bad enough for me and knew I was going from neighbor to neighbor to get food, called someone she knew from Last Hope Animal Rescue and asked for help. That volunteer came to get me right away – she walked right up to me, picked me up and put me in a carrier. I didn’t try to run or not be picked up – I needed help, I was freezing to death.

I immediately went to a foster home where I was kept warm and cozy and she took me to the vet to get blood tests and vaccines. I was already neutered and I was given a clean bill of health. I was told I was a very well behaved housecat and even used the scratching post for my nails.

I am so very sad, and just long to have a new family and home – someone who will welcome me into their hearts and home. I am very sweet and love to nuzzle my head in your hand. I just am very sad. So many people come by and look at me, tell me I am pretty, maybe pet my head for a second or two and then go on their way. I welcome the visits but it gets depressing when I keep getting passed up. What is wrong with me??

Now, here we go into kitten season and those cute little kittens come and go, and I sit here waiting for someone to consider me. I was a kitten once and did get adopted – who would have ever thought I would end up back in a cage needing a home again. What you see is what you get with me, with a kitten you don’t know its personality yet – mine is established and I have just as much magic to bring in to your home – and I need a home too. Oh – should you – YES YES Could you?????? Please give me a chance and make this the day that magic can enter your life – and into mine!

Purr-fectly yours, Hamilton

I've found my forever home! Thank you!
