Here's what the humans have to say about me:
DOB April 1, 2013.
Bishop is such a chatterbox, especially when he's hungry. He makes the cutest little chirpy noises and sort of 'sings' for his food. He's not quite sure how to play with cat toys yet, but he's learning!
Bishop is from a colony in Waterloo. He was trapped and brought into foster care at about 2 months old, and he is now ready for his forever family. Bishop is a very special cat in need of a very special home. He is still very kitten-like. Bishop has a slight neurological condition (Cerebellar Hypoplasia) which causes some balance issues. He doesn't climb, and sometimes loses his balance, and can have small tremors if he is overwhelmed. He needs to live in a quiet home. He's okay with other cats as long as they don't intimidate him, and he's fine with dogs who are able to navigate around him, as he rarely moves out of the way. CH is not life-threatening, and it won't get worse over time. Bishop has a very mild case, and doesn't even know anything is different about him!
Bishop also has a very sensitive tummy and needs to be on a raw food diet. His stomach just can't seem to handle any kind of processed food. We will happily introduce his adopters to feeding raw if they are not already familiar with it.
Bishop has some learning and growing to do, and some confidence to gain, but he's a lovely sweet boy who can't wait to be adopted into his forever family.
