About Finn
All About Me and My Unique Personality:
Is your lap missing a warm feline presence? Do you long for a kitty to spoon while you sleep? I'm the cat for you! I'm Finn, and I'm a quiet sweet little gentleman who adores affection and relaxing with humans. If you're a homebody, wfh deskworker, or a couch potato we'll get along wonderfully. I love sunbaking and meals, pats and chin scritches. I have a very quiet purr, and sometimes I trill to say hello. I'm an older fella so I'm not energetic, but I have so much love and affection to give!
Napping is my vibe and food is my motivation. I think I only like wet food. I can sometimes be picky about my food... like even though I love a type of food, I'll decide that today I'll only lick the gravy off it. But my tastes aren't expensive - the key to keeping me happy is variety.
I'm a A+ litter tray user - no accidents in foster care. I know how to use a scratching post, and I haven't damaged (or tried to damage) anything in foster care. I don't scratch or bite at all. While I'm not keen on being picked up for cuddles, I will tolerate being picked up if you need to move me. This might change over time as I get to know my humans.
I arrived in care stressed and underweight, but I'm doing well. My foster carer thinks I should be ready to rehome around mid september, and adoption applications are open now.
My Ideal Home:
I'm looking for a very quiet and calm home where there are plenty of human laps to curl up on, and I'm allowed to sleep on a bed cuddled up against a friendly human. While I'm fine left alone, I'd prefer someone at home more than being alone. I just love human company! I might need extra tender care and patience while I settle in, as I could get stressed.
I've had a rough time being bullied by other cats and loud noises stress me out, so it would be best if I were an only pet in a household with no children under 12.
I have a habit of walking in between ankles and in front of feet when I think its dinner time, so I recommend a home where everyone is steady on their feet and not at risk of falls.
What is Known About My Background:
My mum's housing situation changed, so I moved to a friend's house. But their cats ganged up on me and I got so stressed that I stopped eating and grooming. I lost a lot of weight. I was taken to the vet and they ran all sorts of tests to make sure I wasn't sick... they all came back clear, so it was determined that my stress was the ultimate cause of my declining health. Reluctantly, I was surrendered for rehoming with the hope that I could find a perfect forever family to love.
Since being in foster care the last few weeks, I've been eating like a champ and lapping up the quiet and cuddles. I've started grooming myself again and regaining confidence. I'm putting on weight and my foster carer is very proud of me. I'm almost ready to go on trial and I can't wait to meet my forever family!
How Do I Interact with Kids, Dogs, Cats and Other Pets:
I've had a rough time with bully cats, and now I get stressed around strange cats. Noises and lots of motion scares me too. So its best I'm the only pet in the home, with no children under 12yo.
I haven't been tested with dogs, but I think it's best if I'm not around dogs too, as I can get stressed easily.
