Georgie

My story

Meet Georgie! A distinguished five-and-a-half-year-old Domestic Long Hair from McKinney, TX, whose luxurious gray and white coat is as soft as a cloud and just as mesmerizing. This handsome gentleman is the perfect mix of independent and affectionate—he enjoys his space but also has a special fondness for early morning petting sessions, making him the ideal companion for someone who appreciates a cat with a routine. Georgie is a connoisseur of interactive play, and his absolute favorite pastime is chasing long wand toys with the grace of a feline athlete! When he’s not showing off his impressive jumping skills on his cat tree, he can be found perched by a window, deeply engrossed in his daily “conversations” with the neighborhood squirrels. His adorable chattering is a sure sign that he's always keeping a close eye on the world outside, ready to provide commentary on every little movement. This charming fellow is also quite the conversationalist, known for his vocal nature and ability to let you know exactly what he’s thinking. Whether he’s reminding you that it’s time for play, asking for head scratches, or simply expressing his opinion about the day’s events, Georgie’s chatty personality makes him an engaging and delightful companion! Since Georgie is front-declawed, he relies on his voice and body language to communicate when he’s had enough attention. He enjoys affection on his terms—head and back scratches are welcome, but he doesn’t like being picked up. He can become overstimulated and may bite if his limits aren’t respected, so a patient, cat-savvy caregiver who understands feline cues will help him feel safe and secure. Georgie is particular about his bathroom habits and requires multiple clean litter boxes. If they aren’t up to his standards, he’ll leave a “gentle reminder” just outside the box. With the recent addition of a baby to the household, he has also started territorial marking near the baby’s belongings. However, these behaviors are likely due to stress and should improve once he settles into a calm, consistent environment. Georgie is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. He does require sedation for full vet examinations, so his future caregiver should be prepared for that when scheduling check-ups. With the right home, Georgie will be a devoted and entertaining companion, always ready for a game, a cuddle, or a chat!
