Happily Homed: Tyrion

We have an #adoptionupdate from Crystal who adopted Tyrion who was adopted in April 2025. Crystal had been looking at shelter cats on and off for about 6 months. In early 2025 she saw Tyrion. Then, she kept seeing his face every time she was browsing. In March, Crystal started visiting him with the intention of bringing him home, and she did!

“Tyrion has fully settled in. He’s best friends with one of my other cats although he still hasn’t been able to break in with the other one. He does keep trying, despite her resistance.

“Tyrion had a host of health concerns when I adopted him (and is likely why he was in your care for so long). I have a good relationship with my vet’s office and we have been dealing with intermittent issues that pop up. He was just confirmed IBD with another ultrasound and high blood pressure, which we’re not on meds for. He’s such a good boy about all of it! So far, though, his diabetes has remained in remission. He absolutely loves the Kong parrot/palm tree toy that he was sent home with and has removed some of its leaves and all the feathers. I’m going to get him a new one for Christmas!

“I’m so glad that Tyrion came into my life. I’m doing my best to give him the absolute best care I can.”

While at the shelter, Tyrion was part of our Lonely Hearts Club—a group of cats our staff believes need extra help finding their forever homes. These cats may be older, less eye-catching, have specific medical needs, or have simply been overlooked. Despite their challenges, we know they have so much love to give, and Tyrion is the perfect example of that! Thank you, Crystal, for recognizing how special Tyrion is!
