Ottum Moon | Male | Bonded Ginger Shorthair (DSH) |
Rescue Story:
My mom and I were transferred from another rescue when we weren't getting any interest. Not something Zoe's normally does but Zoe's knew my old foster and agreed to take us in. Prior to that, we came from a hoarding situation.
Date of Birth: January 2022
Energy Level: Medium
Size (adult): Medium
Adoption Fee: $170 for my mom and I.
Good with Dogs? Yes
Only calm cat friendly dogs who won't chase me, with proper introductions of course.
Good with Cats? Bonded Pair
Especially cat friendly cats and proper introductions. I do need to be adopted with my mom Summah.
Good with Kids? Yes
Older calm kids who would be very gentle with me and not so hyper.
Critter Twitter:
I am a slick ginger boy who truly is sweet if you give me time to come out of my shell! I have had a lot of changes in my short little life and so I am not super quick to trust but if you give me time and space to get to know you and don't rush me, you will learn that I am actually quite playful and snuggly. I am still quite playful and I am pretty vocal and I love having conversations. I love giving head butts and rubbing up against your legs. Occasionally I will hop up on your lap and flip over but God forbid you to pet me for too long... I call the shots! I love treats and toys as well. Though with my diet, treats will have to wait for a while. #sosweet
About my Behaviour:
I am bonded to my mom, Summah. You read that right... My mom. We came in together from an unfavorable situation and we have been attached at the hip.
I do well with other animals but I need slow intros and safe space to feel secure. Cat-savvy dogs are preferred as I spook easily. If you can give me and my mom a nice safe space to come out of our shells, you would be pleased to learn how truly loving and spunky we are!
Although our backgrounds and bios are similar, I am a little bit more trusting than my mom. I will generally come out of my shell quicker than her (although still slow) and we do require a calm, quiet home that is shy cat savy or very understanding.
How’s my Health?
I am fully vetted. I need to continue with my diet as I am overweight. A mix of wet and a little dry twice a day (but three times a day would be preferable). I can never be free-fed in the future as I will get obese again. It is important that I slowly lose weight and then maintain my ideal weight. I love wet food which is great to help me with my weight loss.
