Purring Cat (Russian Blue) Cat Abuser ANTIDOTE

August 18, 2009 - 9:27 am 25 Comments

Boris Kitten (a Russian Blue) purrs and snuggles.

Boris is basically a Russian Blue cat, just like “Dusty”, the abused cat. These cats are very sensitive, easily frightened or startled, and need very gentle handling. Their fur is the softest cat fur ever.

Boris is very frightened of household visitors and is a one-person cat; he will not approach strangers, period. He purrs and “talks” to me whenever I enter the room.

He’s a muffin of complete and utter trust and love, and since his adoption has been the most loving cat I’ve ever lived with. I adore him.

Maybe this little video can be a sort of Antidote to Kenny’s (cat abuse) video. Boris is very happy, very spoiled, and trusts me completely. In return, I love him with all my heart.

Boris is 4 yrs old here; I adopted him as a 3-month-old kitten from our local Animal Control shelter.

Think Boris is cute? Please consider adopting from your local Animal Control/Humane Society/ASPCA shelter, where all the cutest pets are housed.

In these difficult economic times, it makes even more sense to adopt a soft, snuggly pet from your local shelter. All six of our cats and dogs are one-time strays.
