This elegant gentleman is a true lap cat. Morton will sit on your lap, on your cousin's lap, on the Maytag repairman's lap, on any lap that comes his way! Morton is estimated to have been born in 2004. He was a resident of an Animal Control Facility for several weeks before coming to Cause for Paws. In examining him, we discovered to our horror that he had an earlier declaw operation which was done incorrectly; the nails had grown back, but under the skin of his paws. He was in considerable pain, but still willing to be a loving cat. After significant surgery to eliminate the cause of his pain, we think we have given Morton a new lease on a pain-free life. Although he lives a normal cat life, he walks slowly. This may improve with time or it may not. In any case, our best judgement is that he is now pain-free and will need only routine vet care for the rest of his life. Morton's ideal home is one where there is always a lap ready for him, lots of clean water and good food and plenty of attention. A home with older adults, no dogs and one or two other quiet cats would be Purrfect! And whoever adopts Morton will always have a warm lap
