My story

Hi! I'm Louie! I was rescued at Peninsula Humane Society. Let me be honest with you, I am truly a charming and fun cat, but also have a naughty side to me. Let me tell you how awesome I am first. I am a sweet, playful, and energetic young cat. When you come home, I’ll run to greet you at the door with cuddles and kisses. I adore playing with moving objects, especially wand toys. I thrive in a setting where humans can commit their energy to playing with and stimulating me. I also enjoy relaxing and watching humans do chores around me. I’m not particularly vocal but make it clear when I want to play interactively with the humans around me. I love being around humans; I’m comfortable and outgoing when meeting new humans. When sleepy, I always find myself purring in someone’s lap and enjoying pets and head-rubs. I’ll frequently place a gentle paw on my companion’s arms and cheeks to let them know I want more chin rubs. I also appreciate being groomed with a brush while I relax. I can sometimes become a little overstimulated so I need a family who respects this. I am extremely smart and am easy to train with clicker training. I know how to sit, high five, jump on command, and spin; currently, I’m learning to wait and stay before getting a treat placed on the floor in front of me. I’m highly inquisitive and love investigating all the nooks and crannies inside and observing all the activity outside through the window. Despite my inquisitiveness, I’m respectful of furniture and avoid scratching or chewing on objects around the home — besides my designated scratching posts. I love sitting atop my perch on a couch or table where I can see the activities going on around me. I would also appreciate a larger living space, no studio apartments for me. I sound pretty great, right? Well, let me tell you a bit about my naughty side. Sometimes when super smart cats like me get bored we can be considered “bad”. Am I really “bad”? I certainly don't think so. I was raised as an only cat, so I didn’t really learn some manners from my cat friends. At times I can get bored if I don't have enough playtime or enrichment. So I can end up being a little bit grabby or bitey. I'd say I'm like 98% good, 2% naughty. What my human foster thinks I need is someone who is the boss of me, and not let me push them around or intimidate them. Are you up for the challenge? My charming and lovable personality is worth it, trust me. Other cats? Well, that’s kind of up in the air. At first, I thought no way, but now I’m in foster with other cats and they can play with me. But I will let you know, if there’s another kitty in my life they need to be pretty confident. I can go either way, I can be your only cat or go with a cat furiend. What I really need is a family that is appreciative of my naughty ways and help me learn my manners. I’m looking for an adult only family who will play with me, chill with me, and most of all, love me!   You can see more of me in my foster home here @buttlickers_anonymous and more of me here @purrfect_purrminators and here @cousin_louie_the_cat.
