Story
Laika (A134046) is a 1-year-old cat who weighed 16.56 pounds on intake!04/19/24 Laika is back at the shelter due to no fault of his own. His previous owner unfortunately learned that she was allergic to him. In the short time that they had Laika, they said he was a wonderful, sweet and quiet cat. He did well using his litterbox and was said to ride well in the car. He was said to be rough when playing, so he may need some gentle reminders on appropriate play styles. If you are interested in meeting Mr. Laika, please give the shelter a call!04/08/24 Laika was surrendered to the shelter because he was fighting with the other cat in the home. While his owner was breaking up a catfight, Laika bit the owner, resulting in him having to serve out a 10-day bite quarantine. Laikaâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s prior owner felt he would do best in a home without other pets as he is generally fearful of them resulting in fights. He was described as a shy but friendly cat in his last home. Laika has often been found at the front of his kennel soliciting attention. Laika would most likely do best in a quiet home where he can feel truly comfortable. He has no prior history with babies or children. Laika was said to be litterbox trained and has used it well at the shelter. We have also noted that he has a very healthy appetite and loves crunchy treats. If you have a home setting that you feel could be appropriate for Laika and are interested in meeting him, please lets us know! April 19, 2024, 9:21 pm
