Adopt Thumper

Male · Senior · 8 years

Meet Thumper! At just short of 9 years old (you wouldn’t think so with his energy sometimes), Thumper is a great starter cat for anyone owning a cat for the first time or someone who’s after a very easy to care for cat. He will happily use a covered tray, tidies up after himself and enjoys his biscuits. He has an amazing coat pattern on his back which makes him unique. He may appear shy at first but rattle a bag of dreamies and he’s all yours, he’s a perfect mix of wanting affection (happily sits in your lap and provides good head bumps and rubs) and play time (his favourite is a feather wand). With us he loves to sit and watch out the window when he can and will happily chat to you if he wants attention. He has a calm, warm personality that you just simply can’t ignore. He will happily strut down hallways and let you know he’s there. When feeding him treats out your hand he’ll gently take them and not act like a snapping turtle which is always a joy to do with him. Thumper came from a house with another cat so he could possibly live with another gentle cat but would also be fine as an only cat. He would like a quieter home so he can thrive and show off his lovely personality. He comes neutered, vaccinated and microchipped If you think this boy sounds perfect for you then please complete our registration form and if we think he’s a good fit for you our rehoming volunteer will be in touch.
