Romeo aka Sassafras

Romeo, a lover and a fighter. (stuffed animals beware)<br/><br/><br/><br/>I was trapped in Pepperell by a homeowner concerned with all the kitties running around the neighborhood. I was one of 6 cats removed, and no one seemed to be missing me after I was reported to Animal Control and advertised on Facebook, so Fitchburg Friends of Felines placed me with a foster mom who is loving me and trying to make me like her dog. She is not succeeding with the dog part.<br/><br/>When I was first taken in, I was a bit of a grump. Probably because I was not fixed. Well, that was taken care of, and it took the edge off. However, I am still a loner. My foster calls me Romeo because I am a lover and a fighter.<br/><br/>I love myself. I know I am gorgeous. I have the silkiest fur that my foster mom cannot keep her hands off of. Which is a huge issue for me, since I am an independent type. I'm more of a strong, non-public display of affection type of guy, not a love me all the time type. I am a loyal companion, but just trying to be tolerant of my foster mom's lovey dovey behaviors.<br/><br/>I love my foster mom, but she is trying to make me a cuddler. I am not lap cat and happy to be around you, but stop slobbering all over me!<br/><br/>I like to rub up against my mom, but that is probably the most love and attention I can give at a time. My foster believes if I was an owned kitty, I did not get any attention at home. I definitely am not a picker upper nor a lap cat. Laps are the last thing I want to be on. Love me for the Braun I am, and not a squishy lap cat. I am no cuddler, but I like to spend time with my human. I will follow my human around the house, but not sit on my human.<br/><br/>I guess you could say I walk all over my human. Literally. When I walk accross the bed in the middle of the night to get from point A to point B, the shortest route is accross the human in the bed. I do not stop to lay on her, and she gets it. Well, sometimes. She is stubborn.<br/><br/>I do enjoy the company of people. When my mom has guests over, I am confident to stay put and let the neighbors also enjoy my gorgeousness. I am definitely not afraid of people.<br/><br/>I like to wander wherever my mom goes. When she lays down on the couch and watches TV at night, I am up on the back of the couch by her feet. She is always trying to touch me. She does not give up.<br/><br/>I allow kisses, on my terms. I allow for one kiss. I come and sit Infront of my human. I allow her to lift me up by my front legs and she kisses my head, and then lets go. More than one kiss is too much romance for this Romeo.<br/><br/>One thing I do enjoy, is helping my foster with her morning routine. She showers, and I wait patiently in the bathroom for her. I just want to be sure she does not get lonely.<br/><br/>I am an an amateur vocalist. I sing for my food. I let my foster know I am in need of my meal by screaming at the top of my lungs. Apparently, I could use a vocal coach to hone in my talents.<br/><br/>I am now the Walmart Greeter. I wait for my mom at the door when I hear her coming home. I think she actually likes that.<br/><br/>I am a lover with stuffed animals. Maybe, too much. I like to consider them my girlfriends. Hey! If you saw the way they were looking at me... I swear they all want me... So, I give them love. Let's just leave it at that.<br/><br/>I like to nibble. I mean, not hard. But my foster is always stopping me once I start. I find it amusing. Her... Not so much. Sometimes I get overstimulated and bite, which is more than just a nibble. I need a cat savvy human that recognizes this behavior so I don't bite.<br/><br/>I have an agreement with the dog. He was here first, so I know he is not going anywhere, but I don't care for him. We both have a mutual agreement. We share mom. I don't really agree with that, but he is a big dog. I pick my battles.<br/><br/>My ideal home would be with someone not looking for a mushy type. Someone looking for a non-lap cat, but a companion or buddy who does not mind a stalker that will follow my person around. I need someone who understands cat body language. They will understand that I have plenty of love to give but on my own terms. I would likely need to be an only pet as I am very unsure about dogs and don't like sharing my human's attention with others. I am hoping my human will be my BFF.<br/><br/>Fitchburg Friends of Felines facilitates a foster to adopt program that places the intended adoptee with the potential adoptive family.
