About Taj (Domestic Short Hair) in Magnolia Springs, AL 36555

Taj is waiting for you at Stray Love Foundation, Inc. in Magnolia Springs, AL 36555. Meet Taj! Taj is a handsome, affectionate kitty with a dog-like personality—he loves to follow his people around, chat with them, and soak up all the attention he can get. If you’ve ever wished for a cat with the loyalty of a pup, Taj might be your perfect match! When Taj first came to us, he was struggling with a severe case of megacolon.
