Picture this: an 8-year-old cat, named Booger, sitting in a shelter, looking like a giant ball of matted fur.
He was unhappy and unable to find a home, and who can blame him? Being cooped up in a cage with matted fur is no way to live.
But then, a kind-hearted woman named Karyn Poplin from the Kitty Adventure Rescue League decided to change Booger’s life for the better. She rescued him from the shelter and took him under her wing.
It took an hour to shave off Booger’s matted fur, and they ended up shaving off a whole pound of it from his big belly.
After the grooming session, Booger looked like a brand-new cat. He even gave Karyn cuddles and wouldn’t stop purring.
According to Karyn, Booger is a Maine Coon cat or a mix. He loves rubbing on people’s feet and demanding belly rubs, just like the ottoman in Beauty and the Beast.
He’s currently on a strict diet to help him lose weight, but he’s not one to do tricks for treats. He just stares at you until you give him what he wants.
As the weather gets colder in Texas, they even give him sweaters to wear until his beautiful coat grows back. With a little bit of love and care, they’ve brought happiness back into Booger’s life.
Booger will be up for adoption once he weighs less than 20lbs. So, if you’re looking for a fluffy, lovable cat to bring into your home, keep an eye out for Booger. He’ll surely make your life a little bit brighter.
