Meet Louis

Louis and his friend, Sadie, are looking for an extra special family. They came to Animal Aid when their guardian became too ill to care for them. Both were born in 2000 and have been together their entire lives so we don't want to split them up and send them to different homes. But we know it will be harder to find a family who will adopt them as a pair. Even though they don’t cuddle together, they give each other comfort, especially with all the changes they have been going through. Their complementary personalities -- Louis, the outgoing, fun loving guy; and Sadie, the snuggly, sensitive girl -- make for a perfect pair. Louis has been blind in one eye since birth. It doesn’t cause him any problems, though it’s best to reach towards him from his sighted side so he sees your hand coming and doesn’t get startled. His blind eye doesn’t slow him down at all, but it’s one more obstacle to finding a family when most people are looking for perfect, young cats.

Louis is a funny, skinny little guy. He’s got a quirky sense of humor and is quite the prankster. If you walk over to him and he’s on a cat tower that puts him at your level, don’t turn away for a second or he’ll be riding on your shoulder. Did you drop something on the floor? Be careful when you bend over to pick it up or he will hop on your back. Watch this video to see what I mean.

Louis talks in little chirps and grumbles and meows. He has quite a vocabulary. If you visit with him for a while, you may be able to figure out what he’s saying. Once you sit down, he’ll be in your lap in a minute. He’ll stretch out his long body, put his legs up on your shoulder and nuzzle his face against yours. Just watch out for his enthusiastic headbutts! Louis is a real character with tons of personality. You will never be bored with Louis as part of your family. We’re asking for a lot from an adopter. But Louis and Sadie will give you all the love they have. They’ll know that you rescued them from a shelter so they can enjoy their senior years together in a loving home.
