Hi! My name is Eddie and here is a little more about me :
My Journey I came into foster care after developing some cage-related injuries, including a small trauma on the bridge of my nose and a damaged claw. These were addressed right away, and I’ve been healing nicely in a calmer environment where I can feel safe and comfortable again. Being out of the stressful cage setting has made a big difference for me, and I’m already showing my true, friendly self.
My Social Life I’m a very people-friendly guy and enjoy being handled and held. I’ve shown calm, tolerant behavior around other cats so far. When introduced to another cat who hissed at me, I didn’t react at all, which suggests I could do well with other feline companions given proper, slow introductions. I’m still learning the rules of patience when I want something (like getting out of my cage!), but overall I’m an easygoing boy.
My Personality I’m affectionate, social, and confident with people. I like interaction and don’t mind being picked up or cuddled. I did get a little nippy once when I was frustrated about staying in my cage, but it was situational and understandable — once my needs are met, I’m sweet and cooperative. I’m eager for attention and happy to engage with the humans around me.
I Enjoy… Being held and spending time with people Wet food (a big favorite of mine!) Gentle handling and attention A calm environment where I can move freely
I’m Not a Fan Of… Being confined for too long or feeling frustrated when I can’t get where I want to go. With enrichment, patience, and a more open living space, I do just fine.
What Makes Me Special I’m a resilient, loving boy who bounced back quickly once I was given a chance to decompress. My friendly nature, easy handling, and calm response to other cats show what a great companion I can be.
My Perfect Home I would do best in a home where I’m given space to move around, lots of human interaction, and regular mealtimes (especially if wet food is involved!). A home with other cats could be a good fit with slow introductions. I’m ready for a family who appreciates a social, affectionate cat and understands that a little patience goes a long way.
