"Cullen is a very lucky kitty. This orange tabby male was rescued just in time from a local municipal shelter where he was diagnosed with a broken pelvis. This spunky older kitten has grown up in our Medical Center as we repaired his injury. Now healed and heathy, he is ready to unleash his energy in his very first home. We are looking for cat experienced adults who can help him redirect his energy and ease him into life in a home. He’d do best in a household with children twelve and up. You will be delighted by his spunky good nature and captivated by his enthusiastic head butts." (North Shore Animal League)
