Munchkin

My story

Our little Munchkin - aka Lunchbox - is ready to find his forever home! For those who haven't been following Munchkin’s story, here is a quick recap to get you up to speed: Munchkin joined RCHS last September as a very sick 6 month old boy. After his arrival, we quickly confirmed that he has the rare condition of congenital hypothyroidism. We soon learned he also has a heart abnormality and malformed hips. His hypothyroidism is now well controlled with medication and he is also on medication to slow down any development of secondary heart disease. His malformed hips required bilateral FHOs (femoral head ostectomy), which he received in March. Through it all, this sweet boy has been a bundle of love and cuddles and he's now ready to be adopted! This handsome guy may greet you with a little grumpy face at first, but don’t be fooled, it’s all part of his charm! Give him a little time and patience, and you’ll see his true personality shine! He is a sweet love bug who loves to play! He’s currently still on the mend from his surgery and doing better every day. Lately, he’s been showing off by jumping onto surfaces and zooming around to chase his housemates. It’s been amazing to watch his confidence (and energy!) come back. When he’s not practicing his parkour skills, he’s all about cozy time. He loves snuggling up in bed and will happily keep your pillow warm while you’re gone. He’d thrive with a playful cat buddy who enjoys chasing and wrestling, but he’d also be perfectly content as your one-and-only, soaking up all the love and attention. He is okay with respectful dogs as well! If you’re looking for a cat who starts a little spicy but turns into a total softie, Lunchbox might just be your perfect match! All kitties go to their new homes spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, and tested negative for FIV/FeLV.
