Each week WKTV features an adoptable pet—or few—from an area shelter. This week’s beauty is from Crash’s Landing. Crash’s Landing and Big Sid’s Sanctuary rescue organizations were founded by Jennifer Denyes, DVM (Dr. Jen), who is on staff at Clyde Park Veterinary Clinic (4245 Clyde Park Ave SW).
We are not kidding you when we say that mighty Moe is undeniably one of THE most beautiful cats we have, both inside and out, the total package of purr-fection! Born in the fall of 2015, this magnificent creature came to us via a Sheridan couple that befriended and took him in last October.
Although they were absolutely in love with him (who isn’t?!) when he tested positive for FIV they were concerned with the risk of infection to their four current cats and contacted a friend who volunteers with us; we agreed to admit this handsome fella into our furry fold at Big Sid’s without hesitation. At their home he was proving to be a bit of a handful, so we don’t blame them for seeking alternative placement, but once he padded his pretty little paws into our place, Moe was all about minding his manners, mingling and meshing with his new roomies (all 49 of them)!
The general opinion regarding our new addition is as follows: “Moe is a fantastic guy! He immediately made himself right at home in our shelter and has loved every single second with us. He’s a busy guy who always seems to be right in the middle of the action. He gets along great with the other cats, but he could definitely live as an only cat too. He would be excellent with children.”
“Moe is so sweet, and is just an all around happy cat. He loves to follow us around, and enjoys being scooped up and held. He gets along great with all his new friends. He would be perfect in a home with kids-he’s very playful, and has shown no signs of aggression whatsoever. He’s quickly become a volunteer favorite.”
This majestic creature has rendered us completely smitten, and we seriously doubt he is going to grace us with his phenomenal presence very long.

Crash’s Landing and Big Sid’s Sanctuary have a common mission: To take at-risk stray cats off the streets of the Greater Grand Rapids area, provide them with veterinary care and house them in free-roaming, no-kill facilities until dedicated, loving, permanent homes can be found.
