Potts

Mixed Breed Cat · Male · Adult · 10 years

Personality:Potts was initially very scared when he came into us. He has now settled but still finds sudden movements quite frightening. He is an affectionate boy and prefers being socialised whilst its quiet. Potts will do well in a calm household so he feels safe to come out and explore. Behaviour:Potts greets socialisers when he feels ready. Often poking his head out the carrier, having a chat then rubbing his head on the edges of the hide. As he is still cautious of noises, socialisers remain quiet and move slowly around him. They let him initiate the fuss, but once he trusts them, he leans into their hand enjoying some cheek tickles. He is becoming more confident daily and with his most trusted people, he will lay next to them, paddy pawing and purring. Housing:Potts does get easily spooked when out exploring the cattery floor and will run back to his unit where he feels safe, so for this reason he would benefit from his own unused room to initially settle in before exploring the rest of the property, and eventually a garden. He cannot be homed in so14 area of Southampton. Children/pets:Due to his nervousness, Potts would need an adult only home with no other pets. Vet history:Potts is neutered, microchipped, flea, wormed and fully vaccinated. Potts has a small nick in the left eye lid. He is not on any treatment for this and it is not causing him any pain or discomfort currently. It is likely due to previous trauma. This should be monitored and adopters should seek vets advise if anything changes. Potts has no other known medical conditions. 4 weeks free pet insurance included with adoption.
