Dumbledore

Dumbledore was a stray in poor health when he arrived at his current foster home. He has since been vet checked, well cared for, and is doing very well! He loves treats and chirps and chortles while being petted or fed. He has been sleeping at the foot of his foster's bed, but isn’t a big snuggler. It appears he hasn’t had many positive people experiences during his time on the streets, but has been warming up. He’s appreciated pets from grownups and a mature 8 yr old. He does not like to be picked up and quickly gets defensive/aggressive if scared or if he perceives a threat. Therefore small children and other pets (especially those who are energetic) may be too much him. Dumbledore would benefit from an experienced cat owner who has the time and patience to bond with him. As his health has improved, he’s started gently playing “got your foot” from under the bed, where he also likes to rest. He also enjoys batting/defeathering a fishing pole toy! Dumbledore is roughly 2 years old, and isn't a small kitty... at his last vet check, he weighed a little over 11 pounds (and could probably stand to fill in a little more still.) He is also missing half of his tail and what’s left has a kink and curl to it like a pig’s tail. We don't know how it happened, but when he came to us it had already healed over, and now he wags it like a dog. This gorgeous boy has been through so much! He deserves a home that is safe, and a family that is patient. Somewhere he can relax and learn how to love and be loved. Is your home the safe haven he has been waiting for? Included with the adoption is the kitty's neuter, all current-due FVRCP, FeLeuk, and rabies vaccinations for kitties over 1-year, deworming, flea treatment, a wellness check, FIV/FeLV combo testing, and microchipping. In addition to being fully vetted, our cats and kittens are highly socialized. We offer a 2-week getting acquainted period and a 2-week wellness guarantee, so you can comfortably settle in with your new kitty!
