My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

HISTORY: PICKLE, CORNICHON, GHERKIN, and DILL were living in a cat colony, trapped, and brought to F&F to find them homes.
TEMPERAMENT: GHERKIN is a short-haired cat with a black back and head and a white underbelly and paws. He is a goofy friendly boy who enjoys treats and will seek attention from human caregivers that he trusts. He's easy to pick up although he probably does not care for it. He's been rooming with his brother DILL and the pair have come to rely on each other. Their ideal home would be together, with a catio where they can hang out on high spots and watch birds.
AGE: born approx. 02/01/2020
MICROCHIP #:  981020049470129
DATE OF STERILIZATION: 02/01/2023
VAX RECORD: FVRCP expires: 1/24/25; Rabies expires: 1/24/25
FELV/FIV test: 02/01/2023 neg

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: GHERKIN takes a low maintenance dose of Prednisolone for itchy skin. He may be allergic to something at Santa Fe Cats as his itches developed in care. This may well resolve in new surroundings, but his itches are also well-controlled with low-dose meds, mixed into his breakfast.
