Houston is our celebrikitty that was on the news when he was rescued from a storm drain by Marietta firemen when he was just a tiny kitten. He was adopted that week by a woman who saw the story on the news, but unfortunately she had to return him several months later because he was very active and being too rough with her senior cat.

He will be much happier in this home with another young cat to romp and play with. Happy purrs Houston!!
