Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Trout is an affectionate and handsome cat. He's got a big frame and just a bit of a belly, but his size and weight (15 lbs) won't deter him from getting cuddly on small laps. If he had his way he would spend 80% of the time cuddling, 15% chasing string, and 5% eating Whiskas Temptations.
He makes friends quickly and will try to cuddle with you any time you hold still for a few minutes. Sometimes he wants to be left alone but if you watch his expression he'll let you know when that line is being crossed before a paw swipe happens. He loves to cuddle at night, right by your side or between your feet. He knows when you're sleeping and is tolerant of the occasional accidental kick.
Trout is a bold cat, no hiding under the bed for him. As soon as he is introduced to a new place he walks all over it to explore the layout. He's also fascinated with water and will probably jump into the shower after you get out to stare at drops as they collect and drain, maybe catching a few on his tongue.
Trout has taken a solemn vow to mercilessly attack all string. This hunting prowess has helped him to successfully catch many strings over the years. He gets very excited whenever he hears a can opened but is paradoxically uninterested in anything that comes out of the can. When he's happy and about to get cuddly he will knead you or a pillow.
Trout is an epileptic but if he gets his pill twice a day he has no symptoms. He is the easiest cat in the world to give a pill to - kind of like a reverse Pez dispenser. He knows that as soon as he swallows that pill he gets some Whiskas Temptations which he absolutely loves (other brands just don't come close, apparently). He knows the routine well and will ask you for his pill in the morning when you get up and in the evening when you come home.
Except for needing pills twice a day, Trout is like any other kitty. He just wants someone to love. He makes friends easily and he knows the drill so cat sitters never have any trouble with him - other than having to say goodbye.
Trout would be happiest in a home with no other cats and multiple people for plenty of opportunities to cuddle. He would also be fine with a gentle, friendly dog.

This cat is a Courtesy Listing. We offer our services to help other responsible rescue groups or individuals find good homes for cats in need. We have screened and interviewed each of the individuals before agreeing to post their cat.
Our Adoption Fee is $110. Adopters must agree to return the kitty to Jake’s Place if the adoption fails. All Fees will be returned.
