Hello! My name is Creed. Look at my beautiful green eyes... aren’t I a handsome fella? I am 2 to 4 years young and I am outgoing and friendly. The Community Cat Connection rescued me from the streets, I was homeless. I was abandoned just like many of my other cat friends because I had grown up. I was no longer a cute little kitten. I tested positive for FIV, but I am healthy and can live a long happy life! If you have any questions about FIV, please feel free to ask the shelter. They know so much! I am ready for my family to come and meet me. The shelter is open Thursday through Sunday, from 12pm to 3:30pm. I can’t wait to meet you! The CCC is in need of supplies, especially litter (Scoop Away), bleach, laundry detergent, dry and wet cat and kitten food (Purina/Friskies), paper towels, trash bags, and treats! Any help is very much appreciated! We are located at 289 Thompson Road in Webster and are open Thursday through Sunday 12pm-3:30pm. You can see more of our adoptable cats on Petfinder and Adopt-a-pet and we would love it if you would follow us and share our kitties on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com /pages/Community-Cat Connection/18375625177438.
