Cheddar is a 4-year-old kitty with a ton of personality! He was a late bloomer, but is certainly making up for lost time. Already a young adult when rescued from the streets, he was pretty shy in his foster home for an extended period. In recent months, he has learned that these “humans” make pretty good buddies after all and has become much more social! We think this would be a wonderful time for Cheddar to find the forever home he truly deserves.
A couple things you should know about Cheddar – he is VERY VOCAL and will never fail to let you know when he wants food, pets, etc. For someone who loves a chatty kitty, it’s quite charming, but if you prefer your critters on the quiet side, he may not be the right match! Also, Cheddar is a big ol’ foodie. He absolutely adores his food, especially grain-free food, and treats… more so than any other cat we’ve ever seen. He normally eats dry food, but he just goes WILD when a can or treat jar is opened!
Having spent a few years in a low-key rescue home, we would anticipate that Cheddar will take some time and patience to settle into a new environment. You will surely be able to win him over with time, especially with KITTY TREATS in your arsenal! He loves pets and playtime, is not a huge fan of being picked up, but we’ve acclimated him to tolerate it for short spells. Cheddar would probably not fit into a household with small kids or dogs, but gets along beautifully with other cats. He could be a great choice if you need a companion for a kitty you already have, or would be interested in adopting a pair of kitties (either Java or Spock could be a good option, of similar age and temperament).
Cheddar has been neutered, tested FIV/FELV negative, and is up to date on vaccinations. He has always done a great job of using the litterbox! There is an adoption donation to the Feral Cat Foundation (an all-volunteer organization, which helped get him out of a bad situation and provided all of his medical care) to help us continue our work with homeless cats. If you may be interested in meeting this foodie cat (and possibly bonding over the next season of Master Chef), please give us a call or email!

More about this rescue
The Feral Cat Foundation (FCF) is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization whose primary mission is to help people live with the feral and forgotten cats and kittens in the communities of Alameda and Contra Costa counties of northern California. We accomplish this through the nationally-recognized and effective method of "TNR" (trap-neuter-return). When possible, tame cats and kittens are adopted to loving homes. Cats that cannot be socialized are returned to the location where they were trapped and fed daily by caring volunteers. The lack of resources and a sanctuary prevent FCF from being able to take owner surrenders, rescue cats from shelters, or remove cats from neighborhoods.
