WHISP

This is Whisp. He is about 12 years old and about 8 pounds. He has the cutest eyes and wispy whiskers that make him look wise! He’s a sweet fellow, see if he would be perfect for your home! These are some benefits for adopting an elder cat: 1. They have an established personality When you get a kitten, you don’t quite know what sort of character they’ll grow up to have. Their personality is likely to change a lot in their first few years of life. When you adopt a mature elder you’ll have a better idea of what to expect from your new cat companion. 2. They’ll be a calming companion An older cat is likely to be a lot calmer, and happier to spend more time snoozing and cuddling up with you. 3. They may be more suited to a busy lifestyle If you’re out of the house for long periods of the day, or busy getting things done around the home, an older cat might be a better option. Although they’ll still want some attention from time to time, they’re also likely to happily snooze while you get on with your tasks. 4. They can still be fun Older cats will usually still love to have regular short play sessions if you find the toys they like. Fishing rod toys are often a favourite! They’ll still have lots of fun quirks to bring a smile to your face every day. 5. They can be great pets for families If you have children of your own or any young family members who like to visit, they will likely want to play with your cat. Older cats still like to play, but they’re likely to be calmer and less boisterous with younger family members. 6. You’ll be giving them a second chance Older cats arrive in our care for many reasons. Perhaps their previous owner passed away or could no longer care for them, or they were abandoned on the streets. By adopting an older cat you’ll be giving them a second chance at happiness in their twilight years. 7. They could still live a long time Adopting a mature elder doesn’t necessarily mean you won’t have them for long. Advances in veterinary care and awareness of good cat welfare mean that cats are living longer than they used to. The average life expectancy for a pet cat is around 12 to 14 years. But some can live well into their late teens and even early 20s. Whisp’s adoption fee is $9. He is neutered and microchipped and has age-appropriate vaccinations. A licensing fee may apply.
