About Sheffield
With a name like Sheffield you’d expect to meet a certain type of chap. Perhaps a little reserved at first with a dignified air about him, even loyal and charming. And you’d be right - Sheffield is all these things and more! He’s excellent company, purring contentedly when there are humans nearby and even lets you know with a meow or two, when you’ve forgotten dinner time has passed or he really would like that pat now please.
When Sheffield gets to his new home, he’ll do well in a small, safe space for a little while, as he gets to know all the sounds and smells of his new environment. But this is a great opportunity to get to know each other through some of Sheffield’s favourite games.
This playful boy loves a mouse on a string or something to wrestle with. It won’t be long before this handsome boy is following you around the house as you go about your business. You should also know that Sheffield is FIV+, which sounds serious but actually it just means he can only view the outside world from a sunny window spot in his new home - he must be an inside cat only. But he’s fine to be left in his own company when you need to go to work or go out for the day.
While Sheffield would prefer to be the only feline in his forever home, he is learning to love the company of a doggy companion, so if you’re looking to diversify your furr-family that’s ok with him too. Showing a little patience and love you’ll be rewarded bountifully with a playful chap, much affection and purring and excellent company. Is your home Sheffield’s forever home?
