Patrick

My story

ABOUT PATRICK: Patrick is approx. 12 years old and is a sturdy, good-sized cat. You can definitely tell that he is a male! Patrick is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, tested negative for FELV/FIV, and is microchipped. Patrick is great with his litter box! He is the first one in the box when it is just scooped out! He is good with cats, but pretty much enjoys is own company and likes watching the other cats interact. He is a bit shy at first with new people and can be a bit reclusive at times but once you pick up a toy to play he's ready to go! He's especially fond of toys that dangle or interactive toys. Patrick is also quite the hunter, having captured two mice in his living quarters! Patrick isn't fond of being held, but he has accepted being petted and brushed once in awhile. He is a gentle cat and may take a bit of time to come out of his shell in a new home, but he has made wonderful progress here with us. He loves to butt heads Paul (who was rescued with him) and he sleeps with him. We think he will be fine with another laid-back cat, or as the only cat in a home. The story of the 3 P's: Patrick, Peter, and Paul were once indoor cats but became homeless after their Dad passed away and the house was sold. All three boys lived outdoors for a year and a half. Even though they had shelter and were fed we were concerned about their safety and health because NJ's winter's are very cold and bitter and sometimes subzero temperatures. If you like cats that aren't under your feet, or needing very much attention, then Patrick is the cat for you. He will keep you company and definitely take care of any mice that dare enter his territory!
