In the shelter’s words

Meet Don Corleone – The Gentle Boss of Love!Don Corleone may have the name of a mob boss, but this dashing grey tuxedo cat is all heart and zero crime—unless stealing hearts counts.This sweet, neutered gentleman spent a tough year on the streets, surviving on scraps and kindness from strangers while living with a painful, baseball-sized wound on his side. Many thought he was feral, but once he was trapped, treated, and given a chance to heal, Don revealed his true nature: an affectionate, trusting, head-bumping pussycat who just wanted love all along.Don Corleone adores other cats and thrives in calm, gentle company. Fast movements still make him a little nervous—understandable after his rough past—but give him time and kindness, and he'll lean into your hand with a grateful purr that says, “Thank you for not giving up on me.”He’s not a fan of dogs (too loud, too rowdy for a refined fellow like Don), but with patient people and feline friends, he’ll be the softest, most loyal companion you could ask for.If you're ready to offer safety, snuggles, and maybe a pinch of catnip, Don Corleone is ready to make you an offer you can’t refuse.If you are interested in adopting this pet, please go to www.midwestpetrefuge.com/adopt to complete an application.
