Meet Rory, an older cat at the SPCA of Texas who is looking for a forever home. He is a domestic shorthair mix who is over 5 years old and weighs in at 17 pounds. He has white and gray fur with unique marking patterns. Rory came to the SPCA of Texas from another shelter after his original owner ran into landlord and insurance issues surrounding his residency. He is a very strong-minded and particular cat who would prefer to be the only pet in the home. He has had issues in the past with becoming overstimulated and a calm, quiet home would be the best place for him. He would also love to have a home in which there are no children under the age of 15. He does very well with cat wands, and he has been declawed in his front paws. Rory is waiting at the Rees-Jones Animal Care Center for his forever home.
