Nick's Story

Senior sweetheart and expert snuggler seeks calm permanent home!<br/><br/>With his stunning blue eyes and unique cream/flame point coat, 15-year-old Nick will instantly draw your attention, but it's his super affectionate personality that will make you stay. A shelter fan favorite, Nick likely spent the majority of his life in one home, but after being found stray his listed previous owner declined to take him back from the city shelter. They didn't feel they were logistically capable of handling his senior needs.<br/><br/>Nick's number one goal in life is to snuggle. If you have a warm lap, he will lay on you all day and purr his heart out! Nick is an instant charmer with his proclivity for giving kisses and headbutts. Nick is sweet, mild-mannered, and chatty when you greet him. He is an active senior who enjoys lap naps, playing, and spending time with the humans taking care of him.<br/><br/>Nick has suspected IBD, which means he will need to continue to be on medication and prescription food to keep his GI tract as happy and healthy as possible in his golden years. While Nick uses his fully enclosed litterbox just fine, he has started anti-anxiety medication to keep his litterbox aim on point- and it's working well! While his reaction to his foster's resident cat has been neutral, he would do best in a home with no other pets to reduce potential stress triggers. Nick will be able to thrive with a patient adults-only home willing to navigate his anxiety and senior needs alongside him.<br/><br/>Will you be sweet Nick's snuggle-partner for life?<br/><br/>------------------------------------<br/><br/>This cat is currently located in a PAWS foster home. Please email their foster parent at nicholelouiseb@gmail.com to learn more about them! <br/><br/>In order to meet any cats in foster care, you will need to have an approved application first. To get the adoption process started, please submit an adoption application online at phillypaws.org/catapp. <br/><br/>If you have any questions for our adoption team, feel free to email adoptions@phillypaws.org or call 215-238-9901 ext. 30.
