Story
**FOSTER NEEDED**
Squish is currently a courtesy post, but with a foster we would be able to officially take him into our rescue.
Squish is a 4.5 year old male cat that is the sweetest, friendliest boy. He loves adults, and hasn't had experience around young kids. He enjoys laying in the sun, watching birds, and playing with toys. Squish loves to snuggle up beside you, is curious about what you are doing and will follow you around, and loves to have rough pets and belly rubs. His favorite toys are cat toys on a stick so he can chase and jump. He is a larger cat compared to most, at 17 pounds. The vet would ideally like him to lose one more pound.
He was a stray, outside cat for months (if not longer) until March of 2026. Squish does well being an indoor only cat, and needs to be the only pet in the home as he has become territorial around the other male cat he is currently living with. Medically, he has been healthy until moving in with another cat. He has experienced 2 episodes of Feline Idiopathic Cystitis, and we narrowed down the stressor to being with the other cat (his episodes occurred after squabbles with the other cat). He has not had any issues since being separated in another room away from the other cat. He is currently taking gabapentin twice a day to manage his stress (but once away from the other cat could probably taper down or completely off).
The ideal person for Squish would be someone with a calm home with no other pets, and would have space to have him adjust first in a bathroom or bedroom before exploring the rest of the home. If preferred, he can come with a litter box, food bowls, toys, cat beds, etc, to have his own things he is already comfortable with in his new home (as well as all of the paperwork available for him). He enjoys lower spots to hide, like cat tents or covered beds rather than cat trees and being up high.
