About Caillou - Located in Carlton
Once Caillou gets to know you he is a sweet boy, affectionate and playful. However,
the first few years of his life were rough, leaving him shy of humans and easily
spooked. The first few weeks he was in foster care, he lived under the bed, only
coming out for food and toilet breaks. Now he confidently wakes his human in the
morning to demand pats and, of course, breakfast.
Like so many cats, daytime is for snoozing in sunny spots. However, morning and
evening are play time. Then he’ll hurtle cheerfully around the house. He loves
chasing ping pong balls and pouncing on small, soft toy mice.
So far Caillou will happily sleep at his human’s feet or curled up next to them when
the weather is cool but has yet to discover laps. It is probably only a matter of
time and patience. He willing accepts pats and head scratches but is still a little
nervous when interactions start.
Caillou would be best suited to a quiet home with someone willing to spend the time
to win his trust and boost his confidence.
He gets on well with other cats and might like to have a playmate rather than be an
only cat.
Caillou has had most of his teeth removed which doesn't stop him eating. In fact,
he has a hearty appetite and would get fat if you let him.
