Andre the giant cat helps drum up adoptions

Andre the giant cat helps drum up adoptions

Look at this fuzzy monster!
When no-kill shelter Animal Rescue of the Rockies found Andre, he was dangerously underweight and starving - at 16 pounds. Andre has a massive frame, though, and measures in at 30 inches from his head to the base of his tail. 
 
Animal Rescue of the Rockies nursed Andre back to health, and he has moved house to High Paw Pet Supplies, a pet store which shares space with the shelter's cat sanctuary. There, he noshed on healthy food (and lots of love) and now weighs in at 25 pounds, which is about right for his giant size.
 
The pet store employees suspect that Andre may be a hybrid cat, due to his large size, possibly part Savannah cat. At any rate, his large size and striking appearance have drawn in many people to the store. And while Andre himself is not up for adoption, several of his visitors have gone home with other cats, causing the adoption rate to "skyrocket."
 
It just goes to show, you never know what's going to turn up on your doorstep!
