Name: Patch
Age: 1 year
Sex: Male
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Ref number: 111
Personality:
Patch is a very chatty boy! He knows his likes and dislikes well. He is an affectionate boy and likes to be within human company. When Patch is undisturbed, he can be playful with a variety of his toys. He is particularly sensitive to environmental changes so the confinements of the cattery hasn’t been his favourite. He is alert to sounds in the surroundings and wants to know what’s going on so often keeps on the look out.
Behaviour:
During Patch’s time in our care, he moved to another unit once it became available, which provided him with a larger open space. This change made Patch feel much more relaxed and comfortable with the presence of staff coming into his own space. Patch looks forward to his handlers coming to see him. He will nudge and brush himself against them whilst purring and paddy pawing. Prior to this, Patch found the cattery environment difficult to settle into and was showing territorial aggression when staff accessed his unit to feed or clean. This meant staff were hands off during this time. Patch’s adopters will need to be understanding of his needs, giving him choice and control of his environment and interaction.
Housing:
Patch will need a home with outside access to a garden and will need his own unused room to initially settle into for the first 24 hours and for this to be available for him to access as he wishes whilst he is still getting used to his new home.
Children/pets:
Patch needs to be the only pet in an adult only household.
Vet history:
Patch is neutered, microchipped, flea, wormed and fully vaccinated. Patch has no known medical conditions. Patch has been on some medication to help him relax while in our care. This will be provided for his new home and a plan will be given on how to gradually wean him/her off of this. 4 weeks free pet insurance included with adoption.
