My story so far…

I came into the sanctuary at the end of July after I was one of nine cats who were cruelly abandoned on the sanctuary premises. We were let loose from carriers and simply left behind late one afternoon. One of the staff noticed a few unfamiliar cats in the car park, so the CCTV footage was checked immediately. It showed a van pulling up and the cats being dumped out of carriers before the van drove away. It was a very unsettling and frightening experience for us. We didn’t know where we were or what was happening, and understandably, I was particularly scared. I hid away, which made it a little trickier for the team to catch me!

Thankfully, the following evening I eventually gave in and was coaxed out of hiding late at night by the very kind Becky. Becky works as a groomer on the sanctuary site and is also a close supporter of the sanctuary. I then went into foster care with Becky alongside Yeti, another one of the nine cats who were abandoned with me.

I am only a young boy and I have shown I am a super friendly, loving and affectionate boy. I absolutely adore people and attention and will happily greet you as soon as I meet you! My foster mum describes me as a sweet-natured and gentle boy, and I have even started venturing onto her lap. I am still discovering how lovely it is to feel safe and settled, and I am really enjoying all the love and attention I am receiving in foster care. I also seem to be eating well and enjoying my meals!

Being a young boy, I also have plenty of playful energy! I am still learning how to play with toys, but I am enjoying discovering what I like. I particularly enjoy interactive play with my people, and I have discovered that fluffy mice toys are a firm favourite although I do tend to completely destroy them!

Home I am looking for…

I could live with sensible children aged 6+ who will understand and respect my boundaries.

I like being around other cats and need a cat friend in my new home please! I am currently in foster with Yeti. We could be related but due to the circumstances of how we were abandoned, the sanctuary has no knowledge of our background. It is believed Yeti is slightly older than me. We are currently spending a lot of time together in our foster home and get along well but we aren’t overly bonded. I would benefit from a cat friend so I could be rehomed with Yeti or go to a home with another gentle cat friendly cat! I can be sensitive so would not enjoy a boisterous cat friend!

I would be more than happy being indoor only in a home with plenty of enrichment to keep me entertained. I could alternatively enjoy access to the outdoors after 8 weeks indoors settling in time.
