Rescue Story: I was adopted out through EHS last year, unfortunately the adults in my home have developed severe allergies and now I need a new home. CCE is posting me as a courtesy to help find me the best home!
About Me: Greetings, human. I’m Detective George Sniffington, feline investigator extraordinaire and owner of what may be the most impressive nose in the cat world. Preparing food downstairs? I’ll be there before you’ve even finished taking it out of the fridge. My specialty? Detecting chicken in any form, from any room, at any time!
At first glance, I may look like a rugged fellow with my blind eye, but underneath this tough exterior is a total sweetheart. Once I trust you, I absolutely adore affection. Rub my face, carry me like a baby, sling me over your shoulder while showering me with kisses—I’m happy with all of it! I especially enjoy enthusiastic butt scratches while standing at my scratching post. Give me really good pets and I might even start drooling a little. It’s embarrassing, but I just can’t help myself.
I won’t lie—I can be very shy when meeting new people or adjusting to a new home. Closets are my preferred safe spaces while I figure things out. I need a family that understands that trust takes time. But once you’ve earned it, you’ll have my whole heart. I’m incredibly loyal and love spending time with my people.
I’m a cat who thrives on routine. Around 10 PM every night, I’ll begin reminding everyone that bedtime is approaching. Between 10:30 and 11 PM, it’s time for my nightly mouse hunt! After I catch my toy prey, I expect praise and admiration for my excellent detective work. Recognition is important in my profession.
One of my favorite pastimes is sitting by a cracked-open window, sniffing all the exciting scents drifting in from outside. I also love having conversations with my humans. If you learn my signature “wa kowwwww” call and repeat it back to me, there’s a good chance I’ll come running to see you.
Because I’m sensitive and easily startled, I need a patient family willing to give me time to settle in. During periods of stress, I may have accidents outside the litter box while adjusting, despite being litter trained. Consistency, patience, and a calm environment help me feel secure.
I may do best as the only cat in the home. I previously lived with another cat and was initially very friendly, but was picked on by him. I have come around and am much less defensive than before, but would need slow introductions with another cat-friendly cat in a future home. I would do well with a gentle dog we think as well!
If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will make you laugh, keep you on a strict bedtime schedule, and love you with his whole heart once he feels safe, then I just might be the detective for you.
Vetting: I am neutered, dewormed, microchipped and fully vaccinated. My right eye is scarred. Not to worry it does not bother me & the pressure and stain test were normal.
Adoption Fee: $100 – my fee is a donation to CCE
