Spook is an adorable 7-month old male kitten who was surrendered to the HSOV on January 17, 2025 along with his three housemates (Milo, Moose, and Randy) because their mistress had passed away recently, and her beloved cats became homeless.
Spook has a shiny black short smooth coat, a long tail, and a sweet face with bright golden eyes, a black velvet nose, and long black whiskers.
A family member who was familiar with Spook and his brother Milo told us that these young boys were good with other cats, dogs, and children. They are very attached to each other and are listed as a bonded pair .. And that has certainly our experience with Spook and Milo since they are 'velcro kittens' who are always snuggled up with each other and sleep with their paws around one another. They are being kept together in a large tower (which they love)!
Spook was given vaccinations, Pyrantel wormer, and Advantage Multi treatment on January 20, 2025. He weighed 6.9 lbs that day.
Spook and his kitty friends had been in the home with their mistress all of their lives, so we can only imagine how this has turned their world upside down and wondering why they are now in shelter cages.
Spook and his brother Milo will be neutered in the near future (tentatively on January 27th) and will soon be looking to find a fabulous home with someone to love them again.
