Rascal a Second Chance Cat of West Michigan: His Story

This story was originally published on Facebook on September 18th, 2022 by wonderful volunteer Marj Timmerman.

This is Rascal’s Story:

Rascal came to us from one of the other county shelters. His “owner” had thrown him outside and when Rascal was picked up and brought to the shelter, the owner was contacted via his microchip and said they didn’t own/want him anymore.

A couple weeks later, we went to that shelter to bring back 5 cats and Rascal ran right over to me and went in the carrier! He was an immediate hit with our volunteers and it wasn’t long before he was adopted.

His new mom and dad really liked him but Rascal didn’t like being alone while they worked and became too vocal for their apartment complex, so back he came to us.

And then, here comes the heartwarming part, he was adopted by the perfect person 3 weeks ago!

His name is now Moe, yes after one of the 3 Stooges, he has a feline friend to play with, and we received these pictures and an update from his dad tonight!

Moe is doing great! He has made me feel so much better because he talks to me and it was so quiet in here after my wife died that Mr. MOE really was one of the best things that could have happened! ❤️
