Fuzz

Meet The Fuzz, the "deluxe" aristocat who sits on your lap when you're bare-legged on the toilet!
Please read the description below of quirky "Maine Coon"-style lap-cat The Fuzz (born sometime in Spring 2022) and, if you'd like to reach out about adoption or a trial adoption, please send in your answers to the questions that come at the end of this write-up (please send them in the body of an email to [email protected]) and if we think you and he sound like a great match, we'll get back to you to exchange references and arrange a day for him to come to you. If you see this listing, he is still in need of a lap and a home and everyone who sends in answers to the questions is guaranteed to get a prompt reply!

Read about what a typical day with The Fuzz would be like if he got into your home (once there, he does not like to get outside, since he was picked up as a rescue from the streets where literally drive-by shootings, drug deals and prostitution were daily occurrences around him)! Let's assume you closed him out of your bedroom last night - he meowed for a while and then fell silent, but when you open the door & emerge, he's there, curled up against your door. He runs with you into the bathroom and, if you sit on the toilet, he walks up and down in front of you rubbing your legs, stands on his back legs so he can reach to rub his cheek against your hands, jumps onto your bare lap, butts your face with his head, and curls up on your bare legs as you do your business into the toilet. Then it's time for his breakfast. Meow meow meow meow - he's excited about it and starts to eat, but notices that you've left the room to do some laundry! He's torn, he wants to eat, but....he follows you to supervise your laundering. He inspects the washer for you, maybe tests out its interior if it's front-loading, and runs back to the kitchen with you when you leave the laundry area. He's so excited to be back that he slides into his food with a skid and a crash. Goes back to eating his breakfast. Breakfast over, he accompanies you to the closet to pick out clothes (he inspects the closet for you). Back in the bathroom, he jumps on the counter as you shave, or, if you take a bath, he'll stand guard on the tub-rim or curl up on the pile of clothes you left by the tub and wait for you. He may amuse himself by unspooling the roll of toilet paper you have by your toilet, or by sitting right in the threshold of the doorway, half in and half out blocking the way (a favorite inconvenience of his).

You go out and he's fine by himself. He's distressed to be without you, but he has no separation anxiety (he's in general not a destructive cat, except to toilet paper), and, besides, you have left him with a cat video, which he adores. He charges at the squirrels and birds on the screen so forcefully that, unless it has a firm base on it, your TV will get knocked over. It's hilarious to watch him bat away at his favorite YT video, "Cat Game - Catching Fishes"! He can also entertain himself by getting zoomies up and down the staircase.
