He was abused by a neighbor, with a front leg bound and wrapped tightly with wire.  She brought him to Cat House on the Kings for help, where it was found that his leg was so badly wounded and infected it needed amputation.  While recovering, they also found he was FIV+.  However, despite the torment he's seen in his life, he has greeted everyone he's met with a loud purr and an urge to cuddle.  One of the friendliest and sweetest cats around, Handsome hopes that a loving heart will give him his forever home.

00:00Handsome was brought to us and somebody had taken a wire and strapped it around

00:09Handsome's leg and so his leg was dying and all the tissue was dead. The lady

00:15that lived next door to the people that did it drove him here and spent the

00:20night in the driveway. This part was attached to this. It was so like that

00:26that it grew on already. The skin was already growing together. It was bad.

00:31Me and Tammy seen it. We cried the first time and we were kind of like you

00:35know we got to help him. Can't give up on him. There was no way to save the leg. It

00:39had to be amputated or it would have continued and you can see we amputated

00:43it all the way up to the shoulder. When we did take him in for the surgery we

00:48drew blood and we tested him and we found out he has FIV. FIV is feline

00:53immunovirus. It's the cat equivalent to HIV. It's only passed by a deep puncture

00:59wound that's why non-neuter tomcats usually carry it. What the Cat House has

01:03done is we found a niche, a place where we can help people with their cat needs.

01:08The Cat House on the Kings relies on donations, on adoption fees. We also

01:14sponsor cats. We save over a thousand animals a year out of the area from the

01:21local shelters to those that are abandoned in the neighborhoods and we

01:25spay or neuter in a year's time maybe 20,000 or better.

01:30Handsome is such a great cat that he really deserves a home of his own where

01:35people could love and play with him every day. Cat House is a wonderful

01:40place and we were so lucky to be able to save Handsome's life but I think

01:45every cat dreams of having their very own home. He is the nicest, the sweetest,

01:50the most forgiving cat. You can't believe that somebody would be tortured and

01:57treated that way and then love everybody. He follows you around like a dog so

02:03that's the best part. When we come in and call him, he just runs on his three

02:06little legs wherever you are looking for you.
