A cheerful, friendly cat (particularly at feeding time), Skouch has been a sanctuary resident since he was around six months old. Along with a sibling, he'd originally been brought in to the SPCA. The two youngsters were too skittish to be likely adoption candidates, so, through an arrangement made that year between that shelter and ours, they were able to come and live at the sanctuary.

Anyone who's seen Skouch dive into food that's barely had a chance to make it out of the can with a gusto that rivals even Shadow's can attest that he's a shy boy no longer.
Skouch is also a major pee-er in the shelter. He and his brother both developed or learned the bad habit at the shelter and have both (inadvertently I'm sure) peed on people.
ReplyDeleteSkouch has a large tumor in his belly, but so far, aside from some weight loss, it is not affecting him in any way. His brother Skip also died from a stomach tumor.

Thanks for the info, Lisa! Luckily, he hasn't managed to pee on me (yet?).
ReplyDeleteI didn't know about the tumor :(
Skouch is Skip's brother?
ReplyDeleteThat explains a lot.
He's wonderful. <3
For some reason Skouch does not like me :(
