Domestic Shorthair kittens & cats in Brighton, Ontario

We have made the very difficult decision to find a new home for our cat Jack. He is a seven year old, neutered, black and white, short hair domestic cat, who has recently been to the vet. Our vet has recommended it would be in his best interest to be rehomed. He is a very stressed cat, due to the change in our family dynamic over the past two years with the introduction of our two young children. To make the situation more challenging for Jack, our female cat has become very maternal and attacks Jack when he comes around us and the kids. He is a very affectionate cat, who craves companionship, but during the day, he feels safest hidden away, only to come out in the evenings when the children are asleep. In August, Jack received an annual examination and vaccinations. They did a complete blood count, an fPL test and fructosamine test, all of which has come back clear. We are hoping to find an older couple or individual with no pets. Willing to travel to bring Jack to his new home!
