Hootie

Hootie is a friendly, funny lanky guy who loves to play--hard. He's very athletic and the red dot doesn't stand a chance against him. He's pretty shy at first but warms up quickly. He's a "kitty parkour" master, jumping and swinging from his cat tree and perches, especially during a bout of the zoomies. He enjoys being eye level with you. He likes to shrink away, flatten himself out and army crawl when you give him pets. He seems to like the attention, and it's just an odd quirk. You can actually "pet" him with your voice and have him falling over and rolling around on his back. He does not want to be held, but will tolerate a few seconds of it with some vigorous head scratches.<br/><br/>Hootie unfortunately has stomatitis. He will need a special home that can keep an eye on his gum health and know when he needs to see a vet for his comfort. Following 6 extractions in May 2025, his dental health is much improved. We are currently trying Maxi Guard Dental Gel to keep the inflammation in his gums minimized. <br/><br/>Hootie would do best with no kids or older kids and may befriend a docile dog, though he's never been around one before.. He needs to go to a home with another cat.<br/><br/>Included with the adoption is the kitty's neuter, all current-due FVRCP, FeLeuk, and rabies vaccinations for kitties over 1-year, deworming, flea treatment, a wellness check, FIV/FeLV combo testing, and microchipping. In addition to being fully vetted, our cats and kittens are highly socialized. We offer a 2-week getting acquainted period and a 2-week wellness guarantee, so you can comfortably settle in with your new kitty!<br/><br/>Please note, Hootie's foster lives in Midwestern Darke County. It's ok though, video chats are a GREAT way to do initial meet and greets!<br/><br/>To apply to adopt, please complete an adoption inquiry at www.bluesmews.org so our adoption specialist volunteer can review it and contact you!
