Just look at that face! Max is a handsome 4-year-old tabby with gorgeous green-gold eyes, bold markings, magnificent whiskers—and a story of resilience written all over him. For most, if not all, of his life, Max lived outdoors. Life wasn’t easy. He had to find his own food, compete with other outdoor and feral cats, and he may not always have had positive experiences with people. When he was rescued, Max was found injured with what appeared to be a broken arrow or stick in his back. Today, his injury has healed, he has been neutered and vaccinated, he’s looking healthier—and he’s discovering that life indoors can be pretty good.In just 47 days with his foster, Max has made remarkable progress. The frightened, anxious cat who first arrived is beginning to trust. He now accepts gentle pets and has discovered the joy of head, cheek and chin scratches. Once he feels safe with you, he’ll even come over asking for more. And Max has plenty to say! He’s a wonderfully vocal boy who greets his caretakers with chatter, as though he’s asking, “Where have you been?” He enjoys being nearby and will follow you from room to room to keep up with the action. And as you can see from his photos…
In the rescue's own words, as they published it.
