My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Chili is a giant hunk of an orange boy in a 1.5 year old body. A smart and communicative guy, he wants nothing more than to be in a room with his favorite human, often snuggling up in their lap.

Chili would prefer a quieter household, and his wish would be for someone that is home a lot. Older kids are okay, but he gets scared of the quick noisy movements of young ones. He would do well as a solo cat, or in a house with female cats, but seems to have issues with male cats. Untested with dogs, but would likely do okay with cat-savvy dogs that would ignore him.

He's a guy with big feelings that had a rough first year of his life, and needs an experienced cat person who can help him through what will likely be a scary transition to a new home. He gets spicy when scared, and just needs to be allowed time to get used to new surroundings before he can really open up to you. But once he does, oh boy are you in for a treat, because he falls in LOVE.

(In fact, his foster is heartbroken over not being able to keep him, as he doesn't get along with their resident boy cat. He has truly come miles with his last months in foster, and has proven to be a sweetheart.)

Otherwise, he's a picky eater (Royal Canin crunchies, please!) who doesn't even like lickable treats, but doesn't have any mischief kitty habits - he doesn't care about house plants, is a perfect litter box user, and will leave your furniture alone as long as he has a scratching post. If you're looking for an A+ cuddly ginger shadow, this could be your guy. For more information, contact Jill at dsajill1@yahoo.com or 978-500-6079
