Story
BEEJA is a GRAY MACKEREL TABBY SIAMESE/DSH Mix with green eyes. He is 4 years old, neutered, up to date on vaccinations, tested negative for FeLV/FIV, and microchipped. This strapping boy weighs almost 16 lbs.
Beeja came into our rescue when his owners could no longer take care of him. Beeja was originally fostered by SPCR when he was a kitten, so we know that his momma was a Lynx Point Siamese, but his papa’s breed was unknown - it doesn’t matter, since he is a very handsome cat. His original foster parents did a wonderful job socializing this boy. He is a loving, friendly and confident boy who enjoys being around people. Despite being a big boy, he is gentle and just awesome as far as his foster mom is concerned.
Beeja’s name means happy, and his foster mom understands why he was given this name, because he truly is a happy boy. When he sees his foster mom, he usually runs over to greet her, then he flops on the floor, rolls around a few times, and then invites her to give him some much appreciated pets all over his body, including his belly. Air biscuits are included in this ritual and adorable to witness. If you have a bad day, Beeja knows how to make that go away.
His foster mom is especially intrigued by Beeja’s expressive and long tail that curls around his back. He currently doesn’t appear to be too much of a play monster, just more chill and calm. He does play a little with wand toys when his foster mom swirls those around in the air for him to catch. He loves to munch on dry catnip and he can be a little chatty, especially when he makes it clear that food needs to be served - pronto.
At one point in his life Beeja developed asthma. He is on a very low dose of Prednisolone which he gets every second or third day. The ½ tablet gets crushed and is sprinkled on his wet food, which he gobbles up without any issues. The medication is inexpensive and according to our vet very well tolerated by cats. Because of this diagnosis, he is listed as Special Needs.
Beeja has lived with another cat before and he has met his foster parent’s cats. He is respectful with other cats, so with proper and slow introductions, he should do well with a cat that wouldn't be intimidated by this big boy. He would also do well as a single cat in a loving home. Beeja grew up with a baby, now a toddler and was very tolerant of the child. His foster parents don’t have any dogs, but assume a chill and cat friendly dog would be okay.
Beeja is currently only eating wet food which he loves and it is healthier for him because it provides proper hydration for his urinary tract. Therefore, we would like to find him a home that will continue to offer it. He is using his litter box perfectly.
