Otis's Story

Meet Otis, he will win your heart with his good looks and affection — he's a tiny survivor with a giant heart.<br/><br/>Male | UTD on shots | Neutered | 1-2 years old | 10lbs | Rescued from Costa Rica | Breed: American Short Hair (Tuxedo) | Fostered in Toronto<br/><br/><br/>Background<br/><br/>Otis is a small male cat, around 1–2 years old, with a gentle soul and a story of resilience. Rescued from Costa Rica with a severe neck injury and dangerously underweight, he’s now fully recovered — and thriving.<br/><br/><br/>Personality<br/><br/>Affectionate and sweet, Otis is a total cuddle bug. He loves to be held, snuggled, and doted on, and he’s not shy about asking for love. He’s also playful, curious, and starting to show his fun, relaxed side as he settles into safety. He is a high energy boy and absolutely loves to play, with his favourite activities being the teaser wand, chasing ping pong balls, laces, and looking out the window. He is a goofy boy who likes to lay about in silly positions and is incredibly brave and affectionate despite his difficult past. <br/><br/><br/>Ideal Home<br/><br/>Otis would love a quiet, loving home where he can soak up attention and feel secure. He’d be happiest somewhere with window views to watch the world go by — birdwatching is one of his favorite pastimes!<br/>Because Otis tends to walk right underfoot when he’s excited (and might nip a toe if you accidentally step on him!), a home without small children is best, but older cat-savvy children would be great as well as a cat friendly canine companion. However, he cannot be in a home with another cat but he could live with another FIV+ cat or be your one-and-only.<br/><br/><br/>Training & Activity<br/><br/>Otis is neutered and fully litter box trained. He’s high energy — happy to play with his toys and enjoys frequent structured play sessions throughout the day, especially in the morning and at night, and he loves to be around his people and will be your little shadow.<br/>He tested negative for FeLV and positive for FIV. FIV+ cats can live long, healthy lives and don't pose a risk to humans but will need to be the only cat in the home. Otis just needs a safe, loving home where he can continue to flourish.<br/><br/>Summary<br/><br/>Otis has come such a long way and is ready to give all his love to the right person. Could you be the one to give this brave little guy the forever home he deserves?<br/><br/><br/><br/>**NOTE** All adoption applicants must be residents of Ontario, Canada to be considered.<br/><br/>Apply here to Adopt<br/>http://seapawsrescue.org/adoptionApplication.html (edited)

Sea Paws Rescue's Adoption Policy
Applicants must be at least 21 years of age. All adult members of the household must attend the adoption interview. We prefer that applicants have lived at their current address for at least three months. This is to make sure that owners have had time to settle into their new surroundings, and provides stability for the new pup who themselves have already undergone multiple changes in a short time. Because young puppies require intensive training and care, we do not place puppies younger than 8 weeks of age in a home. Because of potential behavior/training concerns, we are very cautious when placing young pets in homes with children under the age of five. If applicants have another animal at home, they must introduce the animals properly. We want to make sure that their animal is happy with their selection and that the transition for both animals' will be relatively smooth. All adopters must take the animal to a veterinarian within one week of adoption as Sea Paws Rescue (SPR) does not screen for all diseases including, but not limited to, tick fever and heartworm. All further examinations and immunizations from the date of the adoption are at the adopter’s own expense. SPR makes no health guarantees or warranties. All adopters must understand that there will be an adjustment period and their pet may experience behavioural and/or health issues related to the change in environment. Adopters must seek professional assistance from a trainer and/or licensed veterinarian if they have concerns about issues related to the adjustment period. If at any time, for any reason, a SPR adopter decides not to keep their animal, they agree to return the animal back to a Sea Paws Rescue representative. Under no circumstance will the adopter surrender a SPR animal to a local shelter. In the event of a rehoming, no part of the adoption fee will be reimbursed.
