My name is Calcifer!

We found Calcifer abandoned beside a dumpster as a very young kitten during winter, and we rescued him without hesitation. He's almost exactly 9 years old and has lived with us ever since we rescued him as a kitten. We're having to rehome him b/c he has an issue with urinating in inappropriate places (three other pets + new baby). Coming to terms with having to rehome him has been heartbreaking, especially after what he went through as a kitten, b/c he's a wonderful cat and anyone would be lucky to have him. It takes time for him to warm up to strangers, but, once he does, he's a very loving and silly cat. I have a chronic cough that comes and goes, and he always expresses concern in meows and comes to find me and sit on my lap. We're hoping to find him a home with someone who can commit to taking care of him and loving him for the rest of his life. Preferably a home w/o other animals or children because he can get stressed and feel a need to compete for attention and his own space.
