Meet Dean! Dean is a courtesy post for a caring person who found him as a stray. Here's his story.
Dean's past will remain a bit of a mystery. How did such this sweet and friendly guy end alone and hungry looking for food at feral cat feeding station one cold December night? Shortly after he was spotted outside, he was trapped for TNR. He wasted little time showing the caretakers all he wanted was love and a second chance.
He's been quick to forget the cold nights he spent outside and is just thrilled with all the pets and cuddles he gets in his foster home!
His dream home is one that has an open lap for him, that will serve up his favorite wet food dinners, and give him the love and attention he craves. He is a master biscuit maker, sometimes using all 4 paws! He doesn't mind being picked up and enjoys being held. If it's not asking too much, he would love a fluffy bed and a nice perch on a cat tree.
Let's talk playtime. We feel he likely missed out on the fun of being a kitten. Once he discovered toys, he's been making up for lost time. He has a kitten-like playful side to him. He loves to bat around plush mice toys and will occupy his down time with kicker toys. He would love a family who has some time for interactive play. His favorite is a pineapple wand toy!
Dean is estimated to be 3 years old and FeLV/FIV negative. He is neutered and up to date on vaccinations.
The vet told us he has bilateral luxating patella that appears to be congenital. This is a fancy name for a trick knee that pop out of place. Although it can sometimes cause difficulty jumping, Dean has never showed a problem with jumping or signs of discomfort. No treatment is required right now and it's possible he may never have issues from it. Most cats with this condition benefit from pet steps to get to their favorite beds, sofas or chairs and walking on carpet provides more traction and stability.
