Belgium

Belgium arrived into our care as an orphaned 2 week old kitten who was hand reared and raised in a loving foster home - this gorgeous boy had lots of complications with a bone infection (osteomyelitis) that has now healed well however has left him with an unusual gait that can be noticed as he runs around. Belgium is a very sweet, but energetic little pocket rocket! He loves to climb and get in small spaces but will often hang around you when you're doing something as he is quite curious what humans are up to. When he's done running around or climbing, he will plonk himself on the floor and sprawl out, in the middle of the kitchen or generally where the main foot traffic is! He always wants to be noticed.
Belgium enjoys being picked up and given pats from his head down to his tail. When he is picked up, his purr engine starts! He enjoys being held like a baby and doesn't mind having tummy tickles while he relaxes in your arms.
Belgium likes to settle down for lap nap or snuggle when you're watching tv or just sitting down for lunch. He will more often like to sit on your shoulder or climb up above you and watch you from a distance but lookout if you're eating lunch - he will try to climb straight down to your plate for the goods!
He is a very affectionate little boy who would choose cuddles over play if you offer it, but he can get distracted by other pets if he feels he is missing out on a good play session.
Belgium will require a very special home - there is a risk of bone fracture as he is developing so we need an indoor home where he will be safe. A home without young children is important, too.
Belgium is a very confident but calm little fellow and will happily waltz into your home and settle in an instant! He is not bothered by much at all and would appreciate a home that dedicates a lot of playtime, cuddles and toys for him to keep him busy, particularly when no one is home. Come and meet him at our Longford Adoption Centre
