🐾🎩 MEET ELTON 🎩 🐾

Hello, are you looking for an adorable cat who has learnt to love human snuggles and cuddles? My name is Elton and even though my HISStory made me scared of the human world, I am learning that a lot of humans want to love me too.

Nature
I came to live in my Foster Mum’s home a little while ago after spending my first couple years on the streets. I didn't like anyone much at first but then I soon realised she wasn’t going to hurt me. I take time to trust, but once I do, I'm ever so snuggly and want to be where my humans are.

Companions (Children, Cats & Dogs)
The resident cat hasn't really taken a shine to me, but she does tolerate me enough that we don't fight. I'm very inquisitive with other cats so I’m not adverse to living with them, it didn’t take me long to make friends with the kitten in my foster home and she has really come out of her shell with my guidance and support.

I have not been exposed to young children so I’m not sure how I would cope with the noise. I believe I would prefer a home with no young children or at least not a lot of loud noises, maybe older kids like teens could be OK.

I haven’t yet had any experiences with dogs. This might make me anxious. Perhaps a doggy-free home would be best for now?

Likes / Dislikes
I love my food and will make sure there is no wet food left in any bowl. I no longer scoff my biscuits down, I rather enjoy them throughout the day. I also love pats, sleeping in your bed, sunbaking and peering out the windows. I have almost learnt to use my scratch posts rather than the furniture, even though you wouldn't believe that if you saw the leather lounges. I am toilet trained, however in times of high anxiety I might have an accident but I don't mean to do it in the wrong place.

As for dislikes... well, I most certainly do not like to be picked up and carried, I allow my Foster Mum to lift me in order to move me to another spot, otherwise I prefer all four paws to be firmly on the ground. I’m getting used to being touched on my belly and I will be sure to let you know when I’ve had enough. However if you insist on giving me head and chin scratches, you will have my attention for hours! Loud noises and quick movements still scare me but I calm down quite quickly

My PURR-fect home would be one that is stable and friendly. I would love to live in a home with another cat or anyone that would let me sleep in their bed and give me lots of attention.
