Simba was actually adopted from us as a kitten but his owner ran into health problems and we took him back. Simba loves to be pet and he is very adventurous. Simba does well when loose with the other cats during free time. Simba has been diagnosed with heart disease and he is doing great on his daily medication. Simba loves to take his meds each morning in a pill pocket treat.
