đ¤â¨ MEET SALEM â¨đ¤
"OOH, OOH! PICK ME, PICK ME, PICK ME!!!"
Did I get everyone's attention? Excellent. Now, if you're all ready, let's settle in, get comfortable, and get to know each other...
Nature
My life started off in the way most stray catsâ lives begin; cold, hungry and alone. Thankfully one of the Angels whisked me away to safety, filled my belly up and gave me somewhere warm and safe to rest my head.
I have to admit it wasn't an easy time adjusting to domestic life. For the first few months I was terrified and would hiss at my pawrents until they left me alone. My only comfort during those early days were the friendships I formed with the other cats in the house. With plenty of love and patience from my pawrents, and comfort and support from my furr-iends, I slowly started to settle in and learn to love my new life.
I'm still a little timid when I'm feeling uncertain but when I'm at home where I feel safe, and with everybody I love, I am the sweetest and most gentle boy who is everybody's best friend.
Companions (Children, Cats & Dogs)
My second favourite thing in the world, the first being food (obviously), is other kitties! I get on famously with every cat I meet and all of my foster siblings absolutely adore me, though who could blame them?! My bestest friend is my foster brother, Benny. It would make my Foster Mama deliriously happy if we were adopted together, but so long as I join a family with a confident and cat-friendly kitty she knows I will be just fine.
I've never met kids or doggies before but my pawrents think I would do better with the older and gentler ones who will be kind to me and respect my boundaries.
Likes / Dislikes
As I mentioned before, my favourite thing in the entire world - nope, I apologise, I mean UNIVERSE- is food. I would do anything, and I mean anything, for food. I would sell my first born if it meant I could fill my tummy up, but my pawrents reassure me that no such kitten exists (phew!). My Foster Mama says the way to my heart is through my belly and that if you want to be my best friend just keep those treats flowing!
Other things I love include my foster siblings, aka my BFFFF's (best furry feline friends fur-ever!) food, hanging out with my pawrents, gentle pats, food, a cosy place to rest my belly, love and erm... Oh! Food! I can't believe I almost forgot to mention that!
Despite being confident in so many ways I am still uncertain of new people and environments. It will most likely take a few weeks for me to settle into my new home but my pawrents reassure me that I am very much worth the wait. And if you are impatient there are always treats!
My PURR-fect home would be with a wonderfully kind and caring family who have the love and patience to give an ex-street kitty the beautiful second chance he deserves. One with endless amounts of love, affection and Dine creamy treats.
Perth Rescue Angels recommends all cats are indoor only, unless they have access to a secure cat enclosure.
