MC Hammer originally comes from a feral colony at Midland / Passmore in north Scarborough, where there were over 20 cats and kittens in the spring of 2016.
One adult female had a litter of 6 kittens. A team of rescuers managed to catch 5 of the 6 and each was named according to the trapper's first initial and 'C' for Cat. So JC for "Joy's Cat", for example.
The elusive 6th kitten was preemptively named "MC" and it took many more attempts before the rescuers could catch the squirrelly little guy. Upon bringing him to the vet to be neutered, it was discovered that he had a broken leg that had healed a little crooked.
A colleague who went to visit MC said the kitten needed a better name. As it happened, MC Hammer was in town for a concert... and the rest is history!
MC Hammer is shy guy, but he is very gentle and loves being petted, including belly rubs. He is not sure about laps yet, although he is slowly getting used to it.
It would take time for this boy to feel comfortable with a new person. He's likely to hide whenever strangers come over. His furever family should start introductions in a small area of the home where he can feel secure while getting to know them.
MC Hammer is microchipped.
