EKH Pitti – Reden ist Gold

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

I am male, neutered, and born in the late summer of 2020. I have been waiting since March 2021 for a new home. My caretakers say about me: Pitti is also a half-fed-up youngster who has grown up without much care and now needs a new home. At first, he found it hard to adjust, but he has settled in a bit and is already communicating more with us. Of course, he needs time and patience before he can trust. He is far from the proverbial cat that will choose its owner in the matching room. Just like he is far from a truly wild cat. We are currently working with him on grooming and it is clear that this will take time. However, he is easily handled, and we are sure that with enough patience, he will trust his human and eventually request some grooming sessions. To make his time more comfortable, he would like to move in as a second cat, and Pitty gets along well with fellow animals, which she knows. Who would like to have in-depth conversations with Pitti in the future and accept his initial distance, until he is happy to trade his safety distance for physical contact?

Ich bin männlich, kastriert und im Spätsommer 2020 geboren. Ich warte seit März 2021 auf ein neues Zuhause. Das sagen meine Betreuer über mich: Auch Pitti ist ein so halbversorgt aufgewachsener junger Kater, der nun ein neues Zuhause braucht. Anfänglich tat er sich schwer, inzwischen hat er sich ein wenig eingelebt und spricht schon etwas mehr mit uns. Natürlich benötigt er Zeit und Geduld, bis er Vertrauen gefasst hat. Von der sprichwörtlichen Katze, die sich ihren Besitzer im Vermittlungszimmer aussuchen wird, ist er weit entfernt. Genauso weit wie von einer wirklich wilden Katze. Wir üben mit ihm gerade das Schmusen und es ist klar, das benötigt noch Zeit. Da er allerdings gut händelbar ist im Umgang sind wir sicher, er wird mit genügend Geduld seinen Menschen vertrauen können und auch Schmuseeinheiten irgendwann einfordern. Um ihm die Zeit zu versüssen würde er gern als Zweitkatze ausziehen, mit Artgenossen kommt Pitty gut zurecht, die kennt er. Wer möchte mit Pitti zukünftig ausführliche Gespräche führen und seine anfängliche Distanz akzeptieren, bis er seinen Sicherheitsabstand gern gegen Körperkontakt tauschen mag?
