WINSTON-bk's Story

Winston was abandoned along the side of a busy road at about 3 months of age. He was extremely skittish, but starving - which made it possible to befriend him using food and treats. He used a shelter on a patio for a few weeks until finally being coaxed indoors. He immediately got along great with other cats in the home, but would run when approached by humans. He is getting much better about this, but still gets nervous in new situations and will still move out of your reach when approached until he trusts you. HOWEVER... he will jump right up onto your lap if you have food - Silly boy!! He is definitely food motivated and loves his treats. This boy has a tender heart and although he is a rough and tumble, wrestling, running, jumping, chewing, climbing kitty - when he finally poops out, he is purry and gentle and sweet. He sometimes wraps his arms around his foster mom's neck and rubs against her face and cuddles up on her chest in the middle of the night. Winston's adopter will need to earn his trust and will need to start out in one space then slowly branch out - otherwise he could disappear or door dash if he's scared. He absolutely will need at least one feline playmate but would do well in a multi-cat household. He is currently being fostered in a home with cats of all ages. He is accustomed to a catio and that would be icing on the cake for Winston to go to a home with a catio!!<br/><br/>Winston is black with a tiny white dot on his chest and a white smudge near his lower abdomen. He is neutered, microchipped, current on vaccines, and has been blood tested and treated for fleas/parasites. His adoption fee is $175.
