Garfield's Story
Application here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/TLR/Cat<br/><br/>Garfield was part of a TNR (trap - neuter - release) program in Port of Wilmington, Wilmington DE in September but we thought he was too nice and friendly to be released back in the wild. He’s now living in foster care in Berwyn, PA waiting for his forever home!<br/><br/>*Garfield is FIV positive. This means he can live with other cats if they don’t fight and bleed.*<br/><br/>Some quirks about Garfield from the foster parent:<br/>- Garfield came to me covered in dirt and smelling like pee. He didn’t groom himself at all for a couple weeks until his fur became cleaner (I helped with daily wiping and brushing)<br/>- Common house cat things seem to really blow his mind. He couldn’t get enough of the soft plush bed, the satisfaction of being brushed, and the immense pleasure from licking a Churu<br/>- He associates people with nice things, so even though he’s skittish, he will “conquer his fear” to approach you for affection; it’s almost impossible to over-pet him<br/>- He eats until he throws up and begs for more, so scheduled, portioned meals work best; he’s on wet food only at the moment, if you want to feed a different diet, transition slowly<br/>- He has 2 types of meows: one is so faint it could be mistaken as a hiss, and the other sounds similar to a dog toy getting stepped on<br/>- He now grooms himself by licking a few times and chewing lightly the patch of fur he’s working on<br/>- He spends hours a day in front of my French door screen staring at birds, squirrels, and even falling leaves<br/><br/>Garfield doesn’t ask for much and is so full of love. He will be a great addition to your family.<br/><br/>If you are interested in meeting this amazing boy, fill out an adoption application here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/TLR/Cat
