Earlier this year, a sweet tabby cat named Glen arrived at The Stray Cat Club, a rescue organization, in search of safety and affection. A microchip scan revealed his heartbreaking backstory—once a stray, he had been taken in by a family five years prior. However, when children entered the household, Glen began vanishing for days at a time, eventually taking refuge in a neighbor’s storage cupboard to stay warm and dry.
The compassionate neighbor started feeding him and reached out to the community, but no one claimed the cat until The Stray Cat Club intervened. Though his original family attempted to reintegrate him, Glen spent his days hiding under beds, only emerging to eat. Recognizing his distress, they surrendered him to the rescue, where volunteers vowed to find him the perfect home.
A New Beginning in Foster Care
At first, Glen was wary, hissing as a defense mechanism. But as he adjusted to his foster home, his true personality emerged. “He follows his fosterer around and purrs the moment you speak to him,” the rescue shared. He claimed the couch as his throne, basking in attention and relishing every head scratch.
Glen flourished as the center of attention, displaying playful acrobatics and a love for sunbathing by the window. Despite healed facial injuries that gave him a unique appearance, the seven-year-old tabby was in excellent health and full of affection. “He adores snuggles and will happily join you in bed,” his caregivers noted.
The Perfect Match
The rescue sought a quiet, child-free home where Glen could reign supreme. After weeks of waiting, his patience paid off—last weekend, he was adopted by a loving family eager to treat him like royalty.
Now, Glen will never have to hide again. With a kingdom of his own and humans who cherish him, this charming tabby has finally found the happy ending he deserves.
