Why I need a new home

Behavioral issues

My story

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


Galileo is a beautiful 5 year old tuxedo cat. He is remarkably agile, capable of jumping 5 feet and landing without a sound. He loves to play, hallmarked by his loud meows of enjoyment as he roams around with a toy in his mouth, although he prefers to play more independently. He also loves to come into the bed for pets and snuggles, and will often drool with affection. He also loves dogs!

However, Galileo is a highly anxious and neurotic cat. He is hypervigilant and often gets easily scared at slight movements and noises. The good news with the anxiety is that he is never aggressive. He will simply run away, but has never aggressed towards us or other animals. However, we do strongly feel that much of this anxiety would go away if he was an only cat and able to receive more attention!

Finally, Galileo is blind in one eye and is very allergic to vaccines, but neither requires special treatment.
