Here's what the humans have to say about me:
DOB December 1, 2009. Roller is a handsome neutered siamese/snowshoe cross with bright blue eyes. He is a sturdy, muscular brute! Roller lived outside close to a notorious housing project for at least a year. Despite his tough guy looks, Roller turned out to be a friendly affectionate cat who had no trouble making friends with his female foster person. Roller loves to keep himself looking sharp, so he grooms constantly. He also has a snaggle tooth on his lower jaw, which makes his smile a little crooked. Roller tested as FIV+ but despite this blood test he is a healthy and robust boy. Most cats with FIV can lead healthy and normal lives on a healthy diet and with regular vet checks, and Roller seems to definitely be one of those!
Roller loves to get pet, is happy to get picked up, gives affectionate head butts, and loves to sleep in a lap. He is playful and loves to charge around after toys. He says "Eeeerrr..." a lot, so Roller may be a pirate (ship unknown). Roller also has some special feelings about bathroom sinks. He believes that when he is in a sink that he is invisible, but also that no one is supposed to touch him when he is having some sink time! He rolls around ecstatically like it is the best thing in the world.
Roller is in a foster home with several other cats. He seems unnerved around other cats, and can act like a bully towards them. He can occasionally be moody towards people, particularly when he sees another cat. Roller would probably be happiest as an only cat. He would do fine in a quieter household, with respectful children over 12. His signals are easy to read when he feels moody, and his good humour returns promptly when he is given a little space. He seems more shy meeting men than women. He can be a little stand-offish with new people, but once he decides that they are okay, then he will relax and happily get pet and give head butts.
Due to his former rough life, Roller is very concerned about food. He will eat unattended human food, even hot spicy curries! He will tip over garbage cans in pursuit of anything that smells like food, and jump in the kitchen sink to lick pots. Hopefully this obsessiveness will wane a little with time, but his adoptive home will need to be patient with this. Roller is a great guy who is looking for a position as the benevolent ruler of your home, and your heart!
