Macaulay 🍊

Please note: can be adopted or fostered and needs a home with a suitable cat companion.

Hello, I’m Macaulay!

I really love long, slow pats and scritches around the ears. I like to check out what my people are up to throughout the day, and sometimes I follow them around. I've started enjoying snoozing in bed at night and I'm quickly getting used to being picked up and carried around. I'm slowly becoming a real snuggle bug!

I can be a bit wary with people I don’t know, and I’ve been told I have a grumpy expression most of the time, but that’s just my eyebrows! I’ll let you know how I feel in other ways, like long slow blinks to tell you I love you and a big purr when I’m feeling comfortable.

You might be wondering why a cat as handsome and distinguished as me is only just looking for his forever home, but I’ve been busy! When my foster family picked me up, I was helping to raise five kittens - pretty unusual for a tomcat, right? My co-parent Munro and I were living in an abandoned block (she’s the cute tortie in my photos). Each night she’d take two or three of the kittens out to find dinner while I guarded the rest. I was pretty mad when our fosters picked us up - I thought we were doing a pretty good job on our own! But I have to admit that living inside has definitely been a lot nicer, and easier!

I’m ready for the quiet life, so young children probably aren’t a good fit for me, but anyone can be my friend with a bit of patience.

You might notice my lack of a tail - nothing to worry about, I was born that way. Munro and a few of the kids are the same way, it’s just genetics! Apparently, we have some sort of Manx heritage, which I think is pretty fancy.

I really love other cats, so I’d like to go to a home with a friendly cat - I'm ready to be besties. If you don’t already have one, maybe one of my family can come too?
