Mancini was a shy cat that didn't take much to bring him out of his shell. He has had quiet the adventure. He was adopted out in California and lived with an older couple plus a few other cats. When his owner (older woman) passed away in Sept 2007 he and his feline friends were flown from CA to MN in Oct 2007. After settling in in MN. the owner was finally able to purchase a condo and moved in with all the cats in January 2008. Mancini is quiet curious about what people are doing. He will sit in the same room as the caregiver and cautiously watch. Mancini clearly wants to build trust and he gets along with cats and has had exposure to dogs. Mancini's owner recently died leaving all the cats without a caregiver. This is how Mancini came to St. Francis Animal Rescue. I really hope you choose to adopt Mancini because he believes that you will help him fulfill his potential as a life long companion.
