Swipe right on Gus!
If Gus could write a dating profile, his tagline would be "Looking for love and ready to settle down." He would also like you to know that he is a mature gentleman who believes in romance. Gus enjoys staying active to keep himself trim, whether it be a morning zoomies session, playing with crinkle toys, or, if he's feeling frisky, attacking a catnip kick-a-roo. He hopes that you're into PDA, because he is a wonderful boy with a big and loving heart! He also enjoys long naps and chin scratches.
About Gus
In foster
This charming bachelor comes with a great character reference: his foster mom highly praises him and describes him as "so lovely," "totally chill," and "a big cuddler"!
Gus is flirtatious and enjoys love and attention while purring contentedly. He will let you know by giving you head bumps when more pets are wanted.
His favourite move is "face smushes," but he'll also show affection by cuddling on your lap, or laying beside you when it's time for bed.
He will comfort you with a reassuring head bonk, even at night.
Gus may nip before he's gotten to know someone or if he is uncertain in his new environment, but once he is more comfortable, Gus behaves like the well-mannered gentleman that he is!
Gus is generally the strong, silent type, but he is very vocal at mealtime.
Although he values some independent time, Gus will greet his foster at the door when she arrives home, and keep her company when there is work to be done, when it's time to relax, and at bedtime.
Gus can be easily startled, so he prefers to make the first move in interactions, and he dislikes loud noises and sudden movements.
Gus lives with hyperthyroidism, and receives a gel/cream that is easily administered to his ear.
Gus is neutered, microchipped, dewormed, flea-treated, SNAP-tested for FIV/FeLV and up to date on core vaccinations.
Gus' Ideal Home
Gus needs a quiet home with an experienced cat owner, and no small children or dogs.
His previous relationship with a cat was a negative experience, and he doesn't want to get his heart broken again.
Gus is currently on a special diet to improve his gastro health so his future family should be committed to continuing with this.
