DISCLOSURE: The adoptable pets in our program are still in the care and custody of owners who wish to re-home their pet. Owners have enlisted Rescue Well to provide marketing and screening of applicants as a service, free of charge. All fees and adoption conditions are determined by the owner. We advise that adopters do not send payment or deposits for pets prior to adopting. ***** Frostie is 13yo, weighs 15lbs, is neutered, is up to date on his vaccines, is FeLV/FIV negative as veterinary records will substantiate, but is not microchipped. He dislikes/fears loud noises, dogs, having his belly touched. He meows during car rides. Frostie's guardian adds: " We adopted Frostie when he was found as a kitten in a barn, and he has never let go of his farm-like instincts. He is an incredible hunter, often bringing us gifts and leaving them at the front door. When he isn't outside lounging in the sun or showing off his hunting skills, he is looking to cuddle up to someone in the house. He is very much a lap cat for about 15-20 minutes, collects his cuddles and head scratches, and goes off to find a quiet spot in the home to enjoy some much deserved rest. As Frostie is part mainecoon, he is a big boy with a gorgeous mane. He loves to be brushed and will purr so loud that you can hear him from across the room. I am pretty sure that he is part human, as he will actually converse with you via different meows (especially the meow that politely requests a treat) and he has never intentionally scratched or attacked us. If we get too close to scratching his belly or scratch at the base of his tail for too long, he will let out a hiss to let you know he is no longer a fan of the loving session. We always found this respectable as other cats will likely let their claws do the talking without any warning at all. Frostie is a perfect cat for anyone who is willing to give him the head scratches he deserves & a sunny area to lounge in. We are devastated that we can no longer accommodate him due to my mothers worsening condition, as he deserves to live out the rest of his days with nothing but love." Frostie's guardian explains why she has made the difficult decision to rehome him: "My mom recently underwent chemotherapy and is finding herself weaker and unable to care for Frostie. In his excitement, he will often run under her feet resulting in a few falls. We love him so much, and I did try taking him into my home but my own cat did not approve of his new brother. Frostie is sensing the tension and appears to be unhappy, urinating on my moms semi new couch and rug. We attempted to take him to the vet to ensure he did not have any urinary issues, but the vet stated that this is likely due to anxiety the fact that the couches are indeed semi new. He was medically cleared. Between all of these factors, mom has been trying her best but with the risk of falls and being immunocompromised, we have made the difficult decision to try and rehome him." Frostie's guardian offers a brief medical history: He once had a urinary blockage and is now eating Purina Urinary Health. Frostie's guardian states the following regarding children: Although Frostie has lived with children, ages 0-5, his guardian doesn't recommend his living with children, stating "Scared, hides, allows them to pet him if they are gentle and quiet in doing so". Frostie's guardian states the following regarding dogs: Frostie hasn't lived with or otherwise been around dogs, so his guardian doesn't recommend his living with dogs, stating "Scared, hides." Frostie's guardian states the following regarding cats: Frostie has lived with cats, so his guardian recommends his living with cats, stating "It takes some time of course but he does warm up to other cats in the home. He often goes outside and hangs out with the neigbhor's cats." Frostie's guardian describes him as: Very active Playful Friendly Likes to be touched Affectionate Fearful Always at your side Frostie's guardian describes his ideal future home: "A home with access to outdoors (he doesn’t roam far anymore, likes to stay right outside the door and enjoy the sunshine / birds). Preferably a home with no young children or dogs." Rehoming Fee: None Location: Baltimore, MD***** ADOPTION PROCESS 1. If you are interested in ADOPTING me, please CLICK HERE: ADOPT ME 2.
