DOB: 3/02
Lynx’s mom, (probably Nicole) was a young, campus cat from the west side of the Iowa River. His extended family has grown up outside near the UI College of Nursing.
When Lynx was captured in a humane trap, he was already a young adult, and it was clear that he had never been touched by a human. (It was also clear that he wasn't looking forward to the experience.)
After his initial health checkup and vet care, he went to his foster home and has been learning about stairs, cat beds, hands, and all the other things that housecats take for granted.
Because his introduction to humans came after kittenhood, Lynx’s education will take awhile, but he is making good progress. Lynx needs a home where there is at least one other cat, so that he doesn’t have to deal being the sole focus of attention.
Check out his cousins, Aidan, Niall, Peeper, his aunt, Sadie, and his grandma, Baby on our website.
Lynx likes: observing from a distance; mealtime; watching wildlife.
He dislikes: loud anything or anyone; sassy cats.
Lynx is shy and still a bit skittish. He plays well with others and is amenable to change. He's come a long way, but gets very nervous when he's picked up.
