Fade was part of a 20+ cat colony. The colony’s caretaker had not been able to make a lot of physical contact with Fade yet, but the day our Forgotten Felines volunteer came to help with TNR for the colony, he decided humans were ok to trust. He came to our volunteer for lots of pets and she took the opportunity to pick him up and put him in a carrier.
He was certainly ready for indoor life, because within 24 hours he was demanding pets and purring.
Fade was adopted when he was about six months old and he now has a orange marmelade brother as well.
