AKRON, Ohio (WOIO) - Nineteen critically ill cats are on their way to an animal shelter in Akron after they were found in the home of a person with hoarding disorder.
The kitties are en route to One of A Kind Pet Rescue, according to an organization Facebook post.
An Ohio pet rescue is hoping to get a cat adopted using reverse psychology. One of a Kind Pet Rescue in Akron posted about one of their cats on Facebook last week, noting the animal named Creature, is ânot cute and lovableâ and that most days sheâs only âborderline tolerable.â The post went on to say the six-year-old black cat was found as a stray, and âcanât stand affection and really thinks we are all just the annoying source of her food. But that may change in a home. Or it may not.â They continue, âShe may be a good hunter. Either way, we would like a comfy home for her. If you are a jerk maybe the two of you would get along?â If you think youâd be a suitable jerk for the cat you can contact the rescue at Adoption@oneofakindpets.com.

“Let’s be real for a moment. Creature is not warm and cuddly. She is not cute and lovable. She is borderline tolerable on most days,” One of a Kind Pet Rescue posted on their Facebook page. “She can’t stand affection and really thinks we are all just the annoying source of her food. But that may change in a home. Or it may not. She may be a good hunter. Either way, we would like a comfy home for her. If you are jerk maybe the two of you would get along?”
