About The Ginger Potato
I’m handsome and I know it! Being this charming took effort, especially since my start wasn’t an easy one. I faced abandonment and lost my mum in those first few months. But I refused to let that hold me back. Even being diagnosed with mild-level Cerebellar Hyperplasia or CH. I am growing fast, for 6 months old I have made up for what I missed out in the beginning. My big paws and huge ears are a sign of how far I have come!
It only adds to what makes me unique! I don’t require any medical treatment for my CH, it is just who I am. I might lose my balance occasionally or have a special gait (walk), be a bit clumsy and might stare a wee bit too much but I still love to climb, jump off things (also known as a “splatting off” as my jumping skills are not as handsome as I look!) I like a good run around the house, I am a bit like a rocking horse if it could canter. But I don’t let that hold me back.
I love life and live it to its fullest. This also means I have no fear or survival skills, this is where you come in. I am looking for a home that can make sure I am an indoor cat and can offer me a safe space so that I can love you, cuddle you and shower you with affection. I’m just the sweetest boy that can be, my foster tells me all the time. With my big personality, I bring smiles and laughter wherever I go.
In my foster home I thrive around the adults and teenagers. While I like kittens, my social skills with other cats are a work in progress. A similar home to this one would be best for me.
Lastly about me, having had a rough start, I do need to have my teeth checked at the vet on a regular basis. I do love to have dental treats and oxyfresh in my water as that helps me to keep my teeth and gums healthy.
You know the saying; you don’t know what you are looking for until you find it… Well, you have just found me, and I am waiting for you. Submit an enquiry now and let's see if we vibe!

Our animals are fully vet checked, flea treated, wormed, vaccinated and desexed before being advertised. They are evaluated for behavioural traits, fed a high-quality diet, and any known issues are communicated. NOT NEGOTIABLE CONDITIONS: indoor only/restrained to property & must be fed raw or vet prescription wet food.
We will communicate through every step of the process to ensure that the experience is excellent and your feline companion is the right fit. Read the contract for T&Cs for returns.
