About Antonio
PURRSONALITY TRAITS
Hello! My name is Antonio and I'm 4 years old. My hobbies include napping, asking for treats, and playing with my foster brothers. I spent the first few years on the streets, and after 6 months in care, I'm finally starting to enjoy the company of humans. Unfortunately, I was picked up with some pretty serious injuries after I was hit by a car. Two surgeries and one less leg later, I'm a much happier and relaxed boy.
Due to having three legs and pale features, I need to be kept strictly indoor only. I love the company of other cats and would benefit from having a confident feline friend to continue teaching me to trust humans and live the domesticated life. I require a very patient owner who is willing to work on my behaviour with me. Although I have made progress in leaps and bounds the last two months, I still have a long way to go.
Will you let me into your heart, and bed? My foster home is in Maylands.
Love, Antonio
Health Issues
Antonio has had a leg amputation. This surgery was performed at Cat Haven after Antonio was hit by a car and fractured his pelvis and femoral head. We did attempt surgery to keep the leg initially but unfortunately this was not successful. Please enquire with staff if you would like to know more details about his specific past. Cats with three legs tend to do very well despite their slight disability. To keep him healthy and strong, we recommend that he is kept indoors to prevent him from unnecessary strain or danger. While in our care, Antonio has been given intermittent medication to keep him comfortable. For a short period of time, he developed urinary and faecal incontinence which eventually resolved with pain medication. It is likely that he will need ongoing management under the guidance of your regular veterinarian.
Adoption details
Just browse some of the photos of our beautiful cats available for adoption or come to our shelter in Shenton Park to meet our many beautiful kitties.
Please be aware that the cats featured on this page represent only a very small portion of the total number of beautiful felines we have available for adoption. We do not include any of our kittens on this page, as the turnover for youngsters is simply too high to keep up-dating, but we always have many beautiful kittens looking for homes!
Also many of our cats and kittens are currently staying in temporary foster homes out in the community but are still looking for a loving home, so please call Cat Haven in advance if you want to make arrangements for a meeting with a foster cat.
