My story

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

I noticed Sly sitting in my backyard in Spring/Summer and he didn't run away when I exited the house. I called to him and after a few tries, he came came up and rubbed against my legs. There are a number of stray cats throughout my neighborhood that are fed and he is the only one that was friendly. By the next day he allowed me to pet him and pick him up and hold him briefly. My wife and I started feeding him so we could get his full trust and see how adoptable he would be. HE HAS BEEN VERY FRIENDLY, TRUSTING, AND MELLOW.

 

Recently I took him to be neutered (very easy to put into a cat carrier and didn't fuss much) but he was found to be already neutered (including a neuter tattoo) but no chip . He was vaccinated for rabies, treated for fleas and worms, found negative for FVRCP. He is an outdoor cat that wants to be indoors. He has an insulated box on our back porch but we have been letting him indoors separate from our cats some to see how he acts- he sniffs around and then settles in to groom and rest. He is young and can be playful but not wild.

 

Sylvester is leery of our two cats but not overly afraid and definitely not aggressive. He has been nose to nose- least reactive of cats I have introduced in the past. I have been very pleasantly surprised at how easygoing, trusting, and easy-to-handle he is. BUT HE NEEDS A FOREVER HOME.  This nice young adult lives in Hillsboro with his rescuers and his rehoming fee is $50.  Age  is estimated at 2 yrs but he is still young and "kittenish".  His rehoming fee is $50

More about this rescue

Cat's Cradle Rescue keeps cats out of shelters by offering an alternative to a cage - we are a no-kill FOSTER-HOME BASED rescue group that welcomes cats to our home environments as they await adoption.


Why Foster Care? Does your new kitty like children? Does she play with dogs or find other felines too uncomfortable to be around? Does he have consistent litter-box manners? Does he want to cuddle or perhaps his comfort zone is to be more independent. Many life-factors influence cat behavior and while genetics plays a role, we know that human touch, kindness, nurturing and consistency of care are non-negotiable requirements. We provide all of this.
