I'm Boudreaux, and I have quite a story to tell you.

How'd I get my name, you ask? Well, my name was Cajun at the shelter I came from and my foster mom is originally from New Orleans. She said I needed a new name for a new start in life. So, Boudreaux is a nod to my shelter name and her home town. 

Foster mom says I reminded her why she got involved in rescue in the first place...to help cats like me. Most people want kittens or pretty fluffy "designer" cats. Sure, she likes them, and I think they're cool too, but guys like me get over looked at shelters. Not by my foster mom, she took one look at me and said I was super handsome and deserved a real home and life. And, truthfully, I'm a ladies man so I woo'ed her with my charms. 

I'm a "big 'ol" tom cat. I'm now reformed - that's right ladies and gents, I'm a former bad boy. You see, before I was rescued, I was living outside, which left me with some battle scars. You can see my ears are a bit torn up. My teeth are worn down...my canines are mere nubs. My feet pads are rough and scarred from living on pavement, gravel, and whatever else I walked and slept on. I'm also FIV positive. It happens to outdoor cats like me, but it's not a death sentence. I'm a healthy, hardy guy and should live a long and good life. (Foster mom included an infographic on FIV kitties in my photos.)

Don't let my former ways turn you off! I told you, I'm reformed! I'm a lovable, affable guy. Good natured, handsome - even with my scars. I'm a total cuddler, which you can see in my photos and videos. I love to snuggle with my foster mom at bed time, and rarely leave her side (day or night) and am a total lap cat. I purr all the time to let foster mom know how happy I am. I like to talk to her too, just to let her know I'm really grateful for being rescued. I've been fully vetted - oh, and my teeth, even though they are worn down, don't cause me any problems or pain. I use my litter box like a perfect gentleman too! (Foster mom said people worry about reformed cats like me not using their litter box or spraying...I'm a good boy and don't do that since I've been neutered.) Scratching posts are new, but very cool and I rather like them. I definitely like cat trees! They are fun to climb and sit on. If you'd like to meet me, send NTCR an email and they'll put us in touch.

Please contact NTCR AT 214-454-9395 should you have any concerns or questions.
