Laszlo

My story

Mr. Handsome, Friendly, Hipster Laszlo wears a long-haired black and white tuxedo and sports a little soul patch under his chin - he is gorgeous! His name translates to “glorious ruler”, and this fine kitty will definitely rule your heart. It’s perfectly okay with him if you scoop him up and snuggle him! He especially loves it when you scratch his cheeks and chin. At the shelter, Laszlo has shown that he seems to love all cats, cuddling, sleeping, and goofing around with his roommates. He is an equal-opportunity lovebug! Otherwise, he spends his time on patrol looking out the window, finding the good catnip toys to roll around on, and playing with rolly balls. At his foster home Laszlo showed just how much of a lovebug he is. He was constantly making biscuits, especially on soft surfaces like the cat bed his foster got for him. He enjoys lounging in the laundry basket and when his foster let him run around the apartment, he would often try to curl up against his fosters neck when she was napping or settling on her lap while making biscuits Just like at the shelter, Laszlo did really well with the resident cats at his foster home. It was there, that he met this very shy younger cat that was very unsure of Laszlo at first, but Laszlo - the social butterfly - behaved perfectly and went super slow with the resident kitty. A day or two later they were immediately playing and chasing each other across the room When it comes to play time, Laszlo really enjoys jumping after a wand toy and would love to spend hours doing it. Prior to his arrival at APA!, Laszlo suffered trauma to his tail, which gave him incontinence. He can’t empty his bladder on his own, so he needs his humans to manually express his bladder for him, which means gently pressing on it to help him go pee. It’s easier than it sounds, and APA! will show you how and make sure you are comfortable with it. He also takes some supportive meds, and needs a booty clean-up now and then. Caring for an incontinent cat is easier than you may think.
