Description:
Meet Diesel! Diesel is a handsome 13-year-old chocolate point Siamese with a big voice and an even bigger heart. He was adopted by a family, but after things didn’t work out with their dogs, he came to the sanctuary. Shortly after arriving, we noticed something wasn’t quite right—and Diesel was diagnosed with diabetes. Thanks to quick care and treatment, his glucose levels are now stable. He currently takes Bexacat, a once-daily pill for diabetes, and he happily takes it in a pill pocket with no fuss. He’s been absolutely perfect with his medication routine and is thriving now that he’s on treatment. Diesel is wonderfully vocal and loves to chat, especially when he’s seeking attention—which is often! He soaks up affection, enjoys being doted on, and has a blast with cat treat puzzles (he’s a little puzzle master!). Because he craves attention and prefers not to share his humans, Diesel would do best as the only animal in the home. He would also do well with older kids only, if any. He is also declawed from one of his prior homes. If you’re looking for a loving, interactive companion who wants nothing more than to be your best friend, Diesel is ready to be your devoted sidekick! Please remember: Unless otherwise specified, all our kittens and cats are strictly indoor pets. If you’re interested in adoption, please visit straylovefoundation.org and complete an adoption application. Every rescue in our care receives comprehensive vetting, which includes: A combo test Deworming Spay/neuter procedures Vaccinations Microchipping We take every possible step to ensure their health and happiness, giving them the best chance at a long, fulfilling life. While we do everything in our power to provide healthy rescues, it's important to note that some animals may have genetic health conditions we cannot predict (since we don’t have their family history). Additionally, medical tests—though highly reliable—can occasionally yield false negatives. Unexpected health issues may arise, either before or after adoption, but thanks to our thorough vetting process, the likelihood of a long and healthy life is very high. Additional adoption details: Transportation fees, if applicable, vary based on distance and expenses. Home checks may be conducted. Our standard tax-deductible adoption donation is $168. For special breeds, uniquely colored, or exceptionally adorable rescues, we may request a higher donation to help cover vet expenses. Can't adopt? Consider donating, sponsoring, or volunteering! Every form of support makes a difference.
