Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Elton
3-4 year old male
Flame Point Himalayan
As a foster mom for PPCR, I am ever grateful to our transporters for their time, gas, and much love in getting these poor kitties to us. When Elton arrived and came out of his carrier we could see what horrible shape he was in, his mats were at least 3 inches thick all over his body and he could barely walk! I immediately called our trusted local vet and they had me bring him in right away for a shave. Elton just loved it and purred the entire time. An hour and a half later, he was much more presentable and of course more comfortable too.
Kitties coming from shelters are prone to getting sick so they have to be isolated when they arrive in a foster home for their safety and that of the resident kitties. Thank goodness Elton did not get sick and was out of isolation soon, his first night out, he climbed in bed with me a promptly nuzzled his way under the covers to cuddle. He is such a sweet little boy!
He wasn't too fond of other kitties at first but he learned to tolerate them. He also had no problem keeping the dog off of the couch when he was on it, a hiss and a swat worked very well, at least until the dog learned she could jump up and just sit on him, now they share the couch.
His purrsonality has really developed and he is a goofy, fun loving guy, he loves toys and will pull all of the toys out of the basket and toss them around. He also likes to look at me straight on, in fact if I lie down on the couch he will sit in front if me and cock his head to the side, so cute!
Elton is finally ready for his furrever home; he's come a long way! He is fostered in Lodi, CA, contact Jen at 916-217-2151 or email jennifer@purebredsplus.org
