FLY GUY Maine Coon & Domestic Long Hair Mix Absecon, NJ

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Fly Guy! This gentle sweetie came to us in rough shape, suffering from hypothermia and severe dehydration, matted fur and treatable wounds. Guy can be a bit cautious around children and seems fearful of men, but with time, patience and love we think he will thrive. He's not a fan of baths, but he handles it without biting, scratching or being vocal. Though he's quick to find his escape route when cornered and is certainly regaining muscle strength! Guy enjoys being brushed and even aggressive chin scratches. His FAVORITE food is Blue Buffalo Puree pouches. When looking for a feline companion, Guy might be the perfect match for you. He will need a dedicated adopter who is willing to give him the time and attention he needs to open up. He prefers to stay out of sight and under a bed, but does enjoy the daily pets when his foster crawls under the bed to spend time with him.

*Update 12/1/24* Fly Guy has opened up to his surroundings immensely compared to his arrival temperament. Guy will thrive in a home with another friendly feline. His engagement with his foster increased greatly after introducing him to his foster brother. When the kids are asleep with the dog, Guy and his brother spend the evening exploring the first floor of the house while playing together for hours. Guy will still cower and flea at the slightest unexpected sound or movement. However, he will quickly return when he realizes there is no threat. He continues to flee children and is apprehensive of men so he remains in hiding during the days

*Update 2/8/25*

Guy is always on the fly, whether he knows you or not he will flee easily BUT will happily come back and offer you his trust if you lower your hand to him. He has grown to coexist with our family dog and loves his feline foster siblings. Guy would definitely grow to be a cuddler if he were to find a home with adults, as he is easily timid of children. His fears don't hold him back as he always resurfaces for pets. With less chatter in the home, I'm convinced Fly Guy will become more and more comfortable in his atmosphere and be less on the fly. He has become more accustomed to the foster dad of the house, but would still do well in a home with a female figure. Although he does okay with the kids and dog, he'd flourish in a quieter environment.
