The shelter cat with an attitude receives the funniest notice on his cage
OROMOCTO AND AREA SPCA “He’s a treat monster,” Marcotullio said. “The way to his heart is with canned food or Temptations treats.” Even still, no one is exempt from a Max smack. No matter how many days he goes without smacking someone, Max’s no-smacks streaks always go back down to zero eventually. And anyone who is lucky enough to break his streak gets to keep a commemorative pin of the experience.
Marcotullio and her staff are having fun getting to know Max’s quirks and sharing his spicy tendencies with their social media followers, but they’re hoping that he’ll get to leave the shelter soon.
“As much as we’re having fun with it, we really want him to go to a forever home,” Marcotullio said. “He deserves to get out of here and find his people.”
Since posting about Max and his smacking habits, the shelter has received an influx of calls not only inquiring about the sassy senior cat, but about his other friends at the shelter, too.
“He’s helped to bring attention to other cats in the shelter, too,” Marcotullio said. “He’s helping his buddies get adopted. It’s a win-win.”
As of now, Max is still at the shelter waiting for a family to scoop him up and love him forever. In the meantime, he’ll keep dishing out smacks to his favorite people as he sees fit.
