ADOPT SUNSHINE!
Sunshine is a 2 year old male buff tabby. Sunshine has been affectionately nicknamed Sunny, and he does have a warm sunny personality. His foster family will often refer to him as FOMO because this kitty doesn’t want to be left out! Sunny is a born follower and trails his foster families’ 4-year-old cat around the house to make sure he doesn’t miss out on anything. Sunny does require the company of other cats and will need to go to a home where he will have at least one kitty companion who will accept his don’t leave me behind attitude.
Sunshine’s warm and loving disposition is remarkable. He was rescued from a hoarding situation in the spring of 2021 where he was one of two hundred plus cats. When PAW took over his care, he had multiple infections. He is now infection free and healthy! However, Sunny has been diagnosed with chronic idiopathic rhinitis. This means he will always have a bit of a stuffy nose. Don't let that stop you from adopting this loving and gentle survivor kitty! He takes two low-cost medications daily plus two over the counter supplement to keep his sinus inflammation and snuffles under control. This guy is a champ at taking those pills! Sunny is on a diet that consists largely of wet food since it also plays a part in keeping him free from developing sinus infections.
Soon after being rescued by PAW Sunny required surgery to free his left third eyelid. The surgery was successful, but his left eye is somewhat scarred. His vision is not at 100%, but he sees very well. He can track fast moving toys and follows everyone’s movement in the house. He is the rare cat who doesn’t find gazing out the window essential… unless that is what his foster brother is doing.
Sunny has a calm energy and is best described as a gentle and sensitive soul. He loves a good wrestle with his foster brother but will also play independently. Sunny has developed an attachment to one of his toys, a little squirrel. He will sing a tender song of love about his little squirrel as he carries him around the house. He is a true lap cat and is happiest when there is a lap to snuggle into. After people earn his trust Sunny will allow himself to be picked up for brief periods as long as his ears are being rubbed. Sunny is confident when new people come into his foster home and will be right there with his foster family greeting guests. Given a little time he warms up to the new people and enjoys letting them pet him. Sunshine is without a doubt a house cat. Anything beyond the front or back door is too much and he will back away from the vast world beyond the home. Like many cats he does not like sudden noises or fast movement and would do best in a home that is more tranquil than chaotic.
Sunshine is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and tested negative for FIV/FELV.
