My Story
The three friends were members of a large colony that needed help to curtail, and once trapped and vetted, they were assessed to be timid but docile cats that really deserve a good home rather than being colony cats low on the pecking order, and suffer needlessly a fate of uncertain resources and physical danger from inevitable cat fights. The boys proved their assessment correct, and thrived in foster care learning to live comfortably indoors with people. Now graduated with gold stars on their report card, they seek to join a home ready to provide shelter, food and love to these handsome cats.
Memories of colony life may be fading, but Pepper still retains instinctive reactions to loud noises and sudden motions. Although he startles easily, he is also quick to relax once he realizes there is no threat and he is safe. By nature, he is a very friendly, inquisitive and energetic cat in the prime of his life, always ready to purr, loves attention, and spurred by a few cheek scratches, happily rolling on the floor for more pets. Pepper loves to play, his favourite games are lurking in a tunnel ready to pounce, chasing the end of a wand hidden under a blanket, and binge watching cat TV. He is great with other cats and loves playing, grooming and cuddling with his friends Ash and Teak.
Pepper is an entertaining and delightful cat, clean and with excellent litter box habits. This sweet, shy and silly boy is hoping to go home together with his friends Teak and/or Ash, since they’ve known each other all their young lives. But he is also fine befriending another young, social and playful cat who wants to be his best buddy. Either way, Pepper will make an excellent companion for people and fellow felines.
