My story

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

Meet Kovu! A dashing young gentleman who is looking for his fur-ever home. He was surrendered to the SPCA when his previous guardian could no longer keep him. He is a very outgoing and friendly cat who will demanded your attention, often quite loudly. He is a big talker and will certainly let you know when he wants something, usually pets and attention or play time. Once he's comfortable in his new environment, he will certainly have a curious and playful side but he also knows how to just chill and relax when it's cuddle time. He is a cat who needs lots of enrichment and to be kept busy either climbing scratching posts to the highest point in the house, playing with all sorts of toys, or going outside in a secure safe area like a catio. Kovu may be able to be a great adventure cat with some training on using a harness and leash. Beware Kovu is definitely a shoulder cat! He will happily hop on when you're not looking and enjoy his cozy perch wrapped around you.
Kovu unfortunately has a history of inappropriate elimination outside his litter box and was diagnosed with a urinary condition, Idiopathic Cystitis, when he came into the SPCA. He needs to be on a special Urinary Stress diet to manage his condition and hopefully prevent litter box issues in the future. He also needs to be in a home without any other animals or young children to help keep his stress low. In the right environment and with the right care his condition will hopefully no longer be an issure. Ask SPCA staff or a veterinarian for more information.
Could you be the one to give Kovu the life he's always wanted?
