Adopt a Domestic Short Hair (short coat)

We would like to introduce you to Marshall Lee, one of Tabby Town’s most beloved residents. Marshall arrived at Tabby Town in late September of 2013. He was rescued from a hoarding situation with 8 other cats. He is currently about 6.5 years old.

Marshall left the hoarding house and has never looked back. While he may have some physical scars from that experience, we can confidently say that his wonderful larger then life personality remained intact.

As with many animals who come out of hoarding situations, Marshall does have some medical issues. He has some corneal scarring due to past chronic eye infections, his teeth were in bad shape so he needed a cleaning and some extractions done, and he has some respiratory issues which result in a comical snorting sound that always lets you know where he is. None of his problems require any ongoing medical care. His teeth should be monitored to make sure nothing else needs to be extracted, but at his last vet visit he was given a clean bill of health.

Marshall is a great cat in every aspect, loving, outgoing, playful, full of personality, except for one problem, he doesn’t use the litter box every time. Due to the unsanitary conditions in the house and the other cats, Marshall developed a habit of urinating outside of the box and marking his territory. We have never been able to completely break this habit.

Marshall does well with most other cats, but his territorial marking may decrease without other cats in the home. He is pretty good with kids as long as they are knowledgeable and respectful towards him. He has never been around dogs, so we’re not sure how he would do with one. He is pretty outgoing, so he and a calm dog would probably be okay.

We’re posting him just in case his perfect person is out there somewhere. Because of his medical issues and outgoing personality, he is not a good candidate for a barn or being a outdoor cat. But due to his litter box issues, most people are hesitant to bring him into a home.

We know that Marshall is a hard sell but no matter what he will always have a home with us here at Tabby Town.

Marshall is neutered and has been tested for FIV and Feline Leukemia (he tested negative for both).

If you are interested in adopting this one of a kind gentleman, please contact either of his guardians, Brooke or Kaylee, at [email protected] or [email protected] for more information!
