I may be able to live with another cat
Gary
Age: 15 months approxSex: MaleBreed: Domestic ShorthairAdoption fee: £120.00
Gary came to the centre via one of our inspectors after his needs were not getting met. Gary is a very anxious cat who does not trust people very quickly. You have to work hard to gain his trust but once you have earnt that trust he is a very loyal, loving and faithful best friend.
Gary will need very patient adopters who are experienced with fearful/anxious cats, he needs them to understand not only his quirky ways but also see life through his eyes. Slowly but surely, with a hands off approach, is the best way forward with Gary. He is an inquisitive boy at heart and cannot help but come and see what you are doing if you ignore him. Once you get to know him, you will know when the time is right to try and stroke him.
Once he knows you he absolutely loves a fuss and actually can not get enough, he loves his feather wand toy which is the way to his heart. Adopters will need a spare room they can dedicate to him as open spaces set off his anxieties, once he has settled in that room and gained confidence, he can then in his own time begin to explore the rest of the house. If scared Gary will go into both flight and fight mode so extra care must be taken with windows and doors. Given all this Gary really is super cat who deserves the best life, it really will be worth it and you will be rewarded with a very special best friend.
Gary will need to be a permanent house cat in an adult only home. He could possibly live with another cat.
