Guinness's Story

Meet Guinness!<br/><br/>At just around one year old, Guinness has already overcome more than most cats ever should. He was found abandoned outside in a garbage bag, but thankfully got the second chance he deserved and hes made the absolute most of it.<br/><br/>Guinness is an outgoing, social boy who connects with people almost instantly. Hes the type of cat who wants to be part of the action and would happily spend his entire day playing and exploring. Hes incredibly food motivated (treats are definitely the way to his heart!) and has a big personality that keeps everyone entertained.<br/><br/>We suspect Guinness may not have had the best experiences with human handling in his past. While he enjoys gentle pets on his head and under his chin, and even occasionally being picked up, being touched along his sides or stomach can sometimes make him uncomfortable and he may respond with a warning love bite to communicate his boundaries. <br/><br/>He also appears to have a fear response to whistling, suggesting certain sounds may be linked to negative experiences. Guinness will do best with a patient, cat-savvy adopter who understands feline body language, respects his signals, and is willing to let trust develop at his pace. <br/><br/>With time, consistency, and positive interactions, he can continue building confidence while learning healthy boundaries and ways to express himself.<br/><br/>Guinness is a wonderful cat with so much love, energy, and potential to give. With the right person, hes going to make an incredibly rewarding companion.<br/><br/>Guinness is fully vetted and ready to go home: Spayed/Neutered, Vaccinated for Rabies & FVRCP, Tested negative for FIV/FeLV, Microchipped, Flea and Parasite free.<br/><br/>If you are interested in meeting this sweetheart, submit an application in our website, and get to know them better by checking out our adoptions album https://www.findyourcatpanion.org/our-adoptables/adopt-a-cat

Purrfect Catpanion's Adoption Policy
We are very happy to help you find your next catpanion, please fill out our adoption application below to get started. The next step in the process will be a home visit or a video call, during which we will be looking to assess if the environment is safe to receive a cat. Some things we are looking for: - Windows in every room are secured to prevent the cats escaping. - Is the home ready to receive the kitty: litter box, food & water bowl areas, cat food available, etc. - Are there other pets that could potentially cause harm to the kitty? If other pets are present, they must all be fully vetted (Spayed/Neutered and Vaccinations up-to-date) This is not a 1-step process, we want to make sure the adoption is a purrfect match for everyone involved. All adoptions will incur an adoption fee: $200-$250 Your fee covers all vetting: Vaccinations, Deworming, Flea treatments, Neuter/Spaying, microchipping, etc.
