Baloo and King Louie's Story

FOSTERED IN: Bolingbrook, IL 60440<br/>ESTIMATED DOB: 2011<br/>COLOR/BREED: Gray and White Shorthair<br/>KIDS: Older<br/>DOGS: Possible<br/>CATS: No<br/><br/>HISTORY: <br/>Baloo was surrendered with his buddy King Louie to the animal control facility they were originally adopted from years ago.<br/><br/>ABOUT: <br/>Baloo is a sweet, gentle, happy, somewhat shy boy. He isn’t too hard to win over - if you know his weaknesses. His foster said he if he given a hiding place he will use it forever - so if you want to win him over you’ve got to remove his hiding spaces and offer up his two favorite things: brushing, and firm pets. Baloo will let you brush him until your wrists don’t work. <br/><br/>Oddly, for a shy cat, Baloo loves firm pets. Like deep-tissue-massage firm. Baloo loves to get his hair done - and will let you brush him until your wrists don’t work any longer. Baloo can be a little timid in new situations, but oddly, he likes firm pets. Baloo’s fosters have learned his weaknesses and he comes running to them when they enter his room, but this was after he hid under the bed for 6 weeks upon arrival. They disassembled the bed frame to force him out of hiding - and it worked! When his fosters enter his room Baloo runs right up to them to ask for pets and attention.<br/><br/>Baloo is around 14 years old and is pretty low energy, but he still has a round or two of wand-toy chasing in him. Baloo is front-paw declawed, and is an excellent biscuit maker. <br/><br/>Baloo needs to be adopted with his best buddy King Louie. They’ve been through a lot together: Shelter, adoption, shelter, foster home. Their personalities complement each other and they really enjoy being together. King Louie has appointed himself Baloo’s protector as Baloo thinks that “playing dead” is an effective self-protection strategy. <br/><br/>Baloo isn’t being fostered with any children. His foster home thinks he would do fine in homes with children, as long as they understand he might be a little more shy/scared at times. King Louie and Baloo need to be adopted as only-cats because Baloo waives the white flag the minute he sees another cat and King Louie thinks he needs to come to his rescue. Baloo has met the resident dog and isn’t very concerned so he might do ok in a home with a calm dog who will mostly ignore him. <br/><br/>Baloo must be adopted with his buddy King Louie - if you think this duo is perfect for you can find information about our adoption process and our adoption application at www.luluslockerrescue.org.

We encourage potential adopters to ask friends, family, and Lulu’s Locker about companion animal experiences in their lives. We want to ensure the animal we adopt to you fits well in your home environment. We are happy to answer any questions you may have about long-term animal care prior to adopting! Please contact us via email LulusLocker@gmail.com. Everything we do is for the animals in our care, and is aimed at giving them the best possible chance of finding a permanent home. - Fill out our online Adoption Application to get the process rolling! https://www.luluslockerrescue.org/adoption-process-application.
