He was just a whisker away from a very different ending…
Whiskers was found on the streets before being brought to an overcrowded municipal shelter where he was scheduled to be euthanized. A good Samaritan stepped in and brought this handsome tuxedo cat with the long, white whiskers to EHS for a second chance. Whiskers is understandably nervous about all the new faces and changes. Don’t worry, sweet boy, you may have used up some of your nine lives, but you are going to get the happy ending you deserve.
ABOUT WHISKERS - At shelter - Whiskers is a skittish cat who appears to have had minimal experience with humans. - He is currently enrolled in EHS’s socialization program, where dedicated volunteers are working to help him become more comfortable around people. - Whiskers enjoys pets with the back-scratcher to his head, cheeks and chin. He will sometimes close his eyes, and lean forward for more affection. - He has recently started accepting pets by hand from trusted volunteers. - The way to this boy’s heart may be through his stomach! Whiskers likes treats (especially Temptations) and will take them from human hands. - Volunteers report that Whiskers may enjoy music. When one of our shelter volunteers hummed softly to him, he visibly relaxed and then flopped to his side and fell into a peaceful sleep. Perhaps his tuxedo outfit makes him fit for a night out to the opera? - Whiskers is neutered, microchipped, dewormed, flea-treated, SNAP-tested for FIV/FeLV, and is up to date on core vaccinations.
WHISKERS’ IDEAL HOME - Whiskers will benefit from a calm, quiet environment. He hisses occasionally (no malice, just letting his boundaries be known) but due to this he would not be suitable in a home with small children. - He is comfortable around other cats and could go to a home with a compatible feline. - Potential adopters should be prepared to commit the time, effort, and patience required to help Whiskers settle into his new environment. EHS will provide post-adoption support to assist Whiskers with a successful transition to his forever home.
Will you be the one to give Whiskers his safe place to land? Come by the shelter today and see those fabulous white whiskers for yourself!
