Dandelion is a loving, cuddly, four-year-old kitty. He’ll take some time to show it, but once he does, he is the sweetest, most affectionate dude.
He’s a healthy, strong, big cat who the vet says is a healthy weight for his size. He’s a quiet and gentle guy who does not hiss or scratch. He likes humans and, once he gets to know you, he will want a regular schedule for loving and cuddling. He will often just want to hang out with you, and he will tell you when it’s time to join him on the bed or couch to hang out for belly rubs. He doesn’t talk as much as his sister does, but when it is time for cuddling, he will let you know.
Dandelion is sweet, curious, and affectionate. He loves drinking water from a slowly running tap in a sink or the tub, playing with rolled up bits of paper, and stretching across your desk in front of you while you work. He is a big fan of a blanket stretched over a couch so that he can sleep underneath in a mini-tent. He is not a fan of sudden, loud noises, so may race from the room when a loud car passes, but he seems to be adjusting to that over time. By race, we mean fast-walk. He really only runs when he thinks he may be about to miss out on couch time or a bed cuddle.
His one idiosyncrasy is that he likes ear plugs, ideally used ones, to savour and nibble on over a day. If you sleep with ear plugs, you’ll need to make sure they’re stored securely in a drawer in the morning.
Otherwise, we think the guy is perfect! He has no medical issues. His vaccines are current, and he’s neutered and microchipped.
Dandelion and his sister Juniper (also posted on this site) are from the same litter and we adopted them from Toronto Cat Rescue in 2021. However, one of us became allergic to cats two years ago and, despite best efforts to control symptoms, we have decided it is best to part ways. They can be adopted together, although Dandelion would be fine as a solo pet. We don’t know how he would respond to children or dogs.
Dandelion is a wonderful cat who means a lot to us, and we want to find him the right place. He will need time to adjust to his new home and his new people - our guess is about four to five months - but once he does, he will be a loving, dependable, life-long companion.
Please reach out. We’d be happy to answer any questions and then arrange a visit for you to meet him. We live in midtown Toronto and can be available most of the weekend and some weekday evenings.
