Adopt a Domestic Long Hair / Domestic Long Hair / Mixed (long coat)

Name: Fluffy

DOB: May 2015

Gender: Male

Description: Brown and White Tabby Long Haired 

FLUFFY is a truly amazing kitty who has been through so much in his short life. He is a sweet boy who is both bold and timid. 

Once Fluffy feels secure in his surroundings, he races around with confidence. He LOVES spending time on a screened-in porch. The loud noises outside don't scare him one bit - he's at home with the sounds of the great outdoors. Fluffy is also bold when it comes to other cats - he runs right up to them to touch noses.

Fluffy is bonded with his foster mom, but timid toward other people. His foster mom can pick him up and carry him around like a rag doll. He likes to be petted and brushed when he's in the mood, but he can also be a little nippy when he gets over stimulated, or is not in the mood for being handled. 

Fluffy needs a quiet home with a patient caretaker whose home is not expected to change much over time. He also needs a playful cat who likes to be chased when playing and who won't be intimidated by Fluffy's lack of 'kitty etiquette.' Fluffy wants to play with other cats, but isn't sure how to play. 

Fluffy clearly had a home at some point. Having lived outdoors for at least a year, we can only imagine what he lived through. Because his right front leg had severely torn tendons, his leg had to be amputated. Most cats do great on three legs - they just need a little time to get their bearings and not feel vulnerable. Fluffy is no exception - he races around, runs up and down carpeted stairs, and jumps up and down couches and beds with ease. He also has no problem jumping in and out of his high-sided litter box and buries his waste with gusto. 

Fluffy managed to survive outdoors hobbling around on three legs. A kind woman spent months feeding him and gaining his trust. Once she discovered that Fluffy was a sweet, social cat, she reached out for help. If you have a big heart AND the right home environment (quiet with a friendly cat and hopefully a screened-in porch!), please consider adopting Fluffy. He will reward you with lots of purring and love.
