Sandy is a true lover boy! He’s very relaxed and will sleep almost anywhere all day, although he loves a good blanket to do his biscuit making or a tight corner to squeeze into. He gets his bursts of playful energy in which he loves to pounce through a tunnel and throw and chase toys either by himself or with you. He will put up with a lot before making his boundaries clear, in the sense of picking him up, holding him, kissing, and squeezing him. When he’s had enough, he’ll let you know with a slow and gentle nip, but never to hurt you. We think he might’ve been hurt in the past; if he thinks he did something wrong and you put a hand up near him, he’ll flinch. But he’s such a sweet soul. He loves to snuggle either in your arms, on your lap, or right next to you. For someone who has had a rough start to his life, he still truly has a lot of love to give. He’s perfectly fine being left alone for most of the day, but he craves companionship and will try to always be near you when you’re home. He’s very treat-oriented. He purrs constantly when he’s happy and loves to do face rubs with you when he’s in an especially good mood! He still has a bit of food insecurity, likely from his time outdoors, and will devour any food put in front of him. If he’s hungry or begging for food, he will be vocal about it and will even try to get to the bag. Sandy is shy and will hide initially. After some petting, a few treats, and a bit of time, he does however tend to warm up to them. He also gets a bit nervous if he hears noise that sounds like someone coming into the house but quickly gets over it once the noise subsides. Like most cats, he loves to look out the window and will sometimes climb up nearby furniture if he thinks it’ll get him a better view. Sandy would be best with a patient, experienced owner. He was not accepted by the cats in the colony he was rescued from, so he may be best as a single cat, or maybe with one other low-key cat. Sandy is FIV and FeLV negative, neutered, and up-to-date on shots. Email [email protected] to apply!
