About 10445 - Bobinsky
💙🦊 MEET BOBINSKY 🦊💙
Nature
Bobinsky is such a character - his adoring glances are heart warming and his condescending stares give his Foster Mum the giggles. He is a bold, complex and boisterous cat whose teddy bear side is revealed when you build a bond with him. He enjoys being around his person and is very affectionate and loving.
Despite his confidence, Bobinsky feels a lot of anxiety when trying to settle into a new home. He tries to feel safe by showing dominant and aggressive behaviour, which can be challenging. This behaviour seems to be exacerbated by being confined. As he learns to trust you and feel calm this behavior fades away and you'll be rewarded with a devoted (though sometimes bossy) friend to whom you are so very special. His Foster Mum says that he has ‘main character energy’ - could you be the perfect supporting character in Bobi's story?
Companions (Children, Cats & Dogs)
Bobinsky needs a calm environment with one or two adults. He should be kept separate from children as a precaution as they might make him anxious. He's best suited to being the only pet within the house. He becomes agitated around other cats. He's untested with dogs.
Likes / Dislikes
Bobinsky is very food motivated - he will let you brush him without complaint if he has a creamy treat to focus on. He likes to supervise and develop little routines with his person - he jumps onto his Foster Mum’s lap for pats anytime she uses the toilet and licks water from her fingertips at shower time. When he's relaxed he loves head bumps and ear scratches and when he's playful he destroys Da Bird toys at an incredible rate. He'll tell you with a little nibble that he's bored and wants to play.
He can be standoffish or occasionally bossy with visitors and doesn't like unpredictability.
My PURR-fect home would be a peaceful home with someone who is patient and calm but enjoys a challenge and is willing to make adjustments for their feline companion. An experienced cat owner who can read his body language and understand his quirks would be perfect! While he can be boisterous, a gentle approach brings out the best in him. He's doing really well in his foster home but in a home of his own where he can feel secure and enjoy the company he craves he'll flourish.
Perth Rescue Angels recommends all cats are indoor only, unless they have access to a secure cat enclosure.
