ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:

Milo is a friendly boy rescued from the streets of Thailand by an American working there. She took him in, got him medical care, and brought him back to the US. Unfortunately, due to the government funding cuts, that kind woman lost her job and home. She asked Homeward Trails to help find us a safe, loving, new home for little Milo. Milo likely has some oriental or exotic breed mix to him, but you'd need a DNA test to confirm that!

Milo's foster mom says, "He is the perfect companion. He follows you and comes when he's called. He will rub his head on your head, nibble you and groom your hair. He is an absolute snuggler and is so relaxed when you pick him up. He doesn't mind belly rubs. He's such a sweetheart with his humans."

Milo seems to be cat selective. We've seen him do well with a young male but poorly with an adult female. He seems happy to be a single cat getting all the attention. We don't know how he'd do with dogs, but likely it would need to be a dog that leaves him alone.
