About this Cat
My name is Mr. Gato, which means Mr. Cat in Spanish. I am a 2-year-old walking love machine who loves to meet people. I had my own family, but somehow I got out of the house and roamed for six months. I wish I could tell you what happened, but since my story only comes out in the tongue of cat, it will forever be locked inside. I returned home, but during my venture I broke my leg, and didn’t get medical treatment. I thought my family could help, but they didn’t have the money. Fortunately, they found Texas CARES who offered to take me in. I did go to the vet, but my injury was old and couldn’t be reset. My muscles in my shoulder have atrophied, so there’s no helping that either. I don’t really mind since I’m in no pain and have gotten quite use to it. I hold my foot up when I walk, but I kind of lean on my leg for balance now and then. Everyone decided it was best for me to keep my leg since I’m not in pain and I kind of use it. (I would have to agree!) Don’t worry, it doesn’t hold me back! Enough about my past, let’s talk about who I am now! I am loving, want to always be around my person, don’t mind being picked up, enjoy leaning against my humans and will follow from room to room. Even when my foster mom works in the garage, I go out there in case she needs my help. I end up falling asleep, but I’m moral support. I love wet food, dry food and treats. I’m vocal about meeting other cats, but I have only found two that I have liked while waiting for my forever home, but I’m not sure why I like them. I can tell you that I don’t like my foster siblings even though they aren’t mean. They are kind of confusing to me. One won’t talk to me, another wants to follow me and wrestle, and the third one likes to stare at me. I’ve decided to stalk them and yell at them until they go away. My foster mom thinks I actually want to play, but I’m not sure how to go about it. I say maybe I don’t need cat siblings because I’m enough cat all by myself. I am very handsome, use the litter box perfectly, clean myself well and am always available for pets. I don’t like my butt or legs pet, but I’ll remind you with a meow and a hand grab. I don’t want to hurt anyone. I just want to make decisions for myself. This tends to stress people out. I don’t really want to cause harm, but some visitors are afraid of me. I’m really a great boy. My foster mom says it will take a smart cat loving person to understand me, but to hang on, my person will come. I’m feeling a little sad because I’m not happy staying at PetSmart because so many cats around stresses me out, but I love being with humans. I keep taking breaks at my foster house, but then I don’t get adopted when I go back to adoptions. I think my fears are getting in the way of me showing my real self. I want to be loved and find my own home, but I’m wondering if there is someone out there who wants a boy like me. I promise, I’m lovable and will reward you with my quirky self. If you want good company, cuteness, love and a good laugh now and then, I’m your guy. I get around just fine and can jump on your bed. Please come visit me. I would love my own home again. I won’t mind children of any age, but I might do best with children who will know that I don’t like my butt or legs pet. I get nervous and don’t know what to do, so I put my mouth out like I’m going to bite, but then I stop. I only have so many ways to tell humans what I want since they don’t speak cat. I’ve been waiting so long and am really ready to get my own home. I just want love! So much love! Please consider me. You can choose to meet me at my foster home if you like. You will get to see more of the real me.
Contribute to Mr. Gato's Stash!

100% of Mr. Gato's balance will be sent to whoever adopts Mr. Gato.
Adopt Mr. Gato and Receive Mr. Gato's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Mr. Gato's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Mr. Gato's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Mr. Gato, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Mr. Gato's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Mr. Gato was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Mr. Gato’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Mr. Gato’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Mr. Gato’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
