Does the cat scratch a scratcher?
Milo likes to scratch the carpet more than the scratcher.
Does the cat always use the litter box?

Does the cat ever swat (claws in) at you? If so, under what circumstances?
When I come from work, he tries to get my attention because he misses me!
Has the cat ever scratched (claws out) you?
He never scratched me.

We ask potential adopters to please note that Milo was surrendered due to biting and scratching his previous owner. Milo has only become reactive in BCR foster care when he's interacted with men. Milo is most comfortable around women.
To the best of your knowledge, how does the cat react to new people? Social? Fearful?
He is not aggressive or scared, he just ignores them and goes to my bedroom. When he is ready, he will come out and explore.
Does that cat have any cute/quirky traits that aren’t covered by the previous questions?
Milo is the best cat I've ever had.
In your opinion, what is the best thing about the cat? Why should an adopter choose THIS cat to adopt?
Milo is an easygoing, quiet little baby that likes to cuddle. He doesn't make noises over night or wake me up. And he is very clean.
What are the cat's challenges and how have you found to best manage them?
Give Milo some space and let him come to you. Don't be all over him, he gets overwhelmed.
