Hey guys, bit of a special cat here who needs a good home
He is a pure white deaf male, and because of that he is an indoor only cat. He can be outside under supervision but to be honest he is quite happy being indoors. He has been allowed outdoors previously but liked to rub up against car tyres when cars stopped for him on the street and then wouldn't move (he couldn't hear the cars beeping at him and he was having fun).
He is extremely affectionate, and will even greet complete strangers with happy meows at the front door and stands on his back legs to reach up to be petted, loves kids, and they also love him back.
Now for the reason I am having to re-home him...
I am going to be moving soon, and there isn't going to be anyone around during the day to keep him company, and my partner and I are going to be working longer hours as well.
I feel absolutely terrible about not being able to keep one of my pets, and I have always been a firm believer in making commitments and sticking to them (ESPECIALLY where animals are involved) but in this particular case he honestly will be better off. Being that he is so affectionate and falls in love with absolutely anyone and settles in really quicklly I know that he won't actually miss me - I know he settles in really quickly because I have had friends babysit him for me for roughly a week and he just went about his daily business like he was at home.
He would be best suited to an elderly person / couple, but really anyone who has time to give him during the day would make him happy, but he MUST be kept indoors (or supervised outside or in a cat run for parts of the day)
Sorry for writing such a long post.. I just really want him to find a good home (and NO he won't be put to sleep or anything horrible like that if I can't find him a home so I don't want anyone to feel pressured into helping)
I will post some pics of him shortly, but if anyone knows of someone who needs a loving little companion more than I do, or if you have any questions about him, please reply.
Thanks guys
