My story

　　**Please note: applications must be filled out via our website - - thank you for understanding.**

　　Franklin is a sweet, very affectionate all-black adult male cat of approximately 5-10 years of age. He has stomatitis which is under control with his current medication regiment. Because of the stomatitis, he has lost all of his teeth and continues to have the potential of an inflamed throat. It is under control and well maintained with the medications he is on.

　　He will require medication and

　　regular vet visits to keep an eye on him. He is able to eat dry food and he loves treats (although we crush them up and sprinkle them over his wet food for a special treat - yes we spoil him!).

　　He loves other non-dominant cats. He still needs some work, but we think he has potential to hang out with you on the couch one day as he’s such a loving guy! He will be shy when placed in a new environment, and will need to be in one room to give him plenty of time to adjust to his new home and new people. With time (and/or a friendly cat to hang out with) he will warm up to you. He is not the type of cat that will come to you to seek attention.- but he gives you that "look" and you know he wants you to pamper him. He LOVES to be brushed and to be told how handsome he is!

　　He purrs and shows you his belly with a good brushing. He really would be a very sweet addition to your home.

　　This cat is currently in a foster home, so if you would like to meet him please fill out an adoption application. They can be found at and can be filled out online or emailed to [email protected].

　　**A special note: given the current social restrictions we are under due to COVID-19, the adoption process will be a longer one than usual to ensure the health and safety of everyone involved.**

　　If you have any questions or would like to adopt Franklin, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
