This is an adopted cat
In August 2021, Koky heard about the plight of a paralyzed mother cat and her four very small kittens. Even though the Haven was quite full, she agreed to take them in as they would have had little to no chance of survival if left on the streets.
One of those four was a black and white boy named Dizzy.
He is now 2.5 years old. Dizzy has grown into a sweet adult cat with lots of affection. Visitors to the Haven describe him as “good-natured” and “loving.” He is not an “in-your-face” cat, but if you seem like a friendly person and you have an empty lap, you will soon have Dizzy for company. He's good company and will happily follow you around to see what you're up to (if that's not giving love, of course).
Dizzy has had a difficult start in life. In addition to the story of how he was found, he soon had to deal with the fact that he was a little kitten without a mother. His paralyzed mother, Sokra, did her best with her four little ones. Knowing that they were safe, that they were old enough to feed themselves, Sokra died at the end of September 2021.
We want to keep our promise to Sokra to find loving homes for all her babies. So let's find one for Dizzy.
He is neutered, chipped and house trained. He has had his regular vaccinations in addition to the rabies vaccine. When he travels to his new home, he will fly with his vaccination record and his certificate from an EU or UK recognized laboratory with the results of his rabies blood test, as required. We expect Dizzy to do well in most households, including those with respectful children.
This boy has truly only known the safety of the Haven as his home. Dizzy must be an indoor cat, or if he is allowed outside, it must be in a completely cat-proof garden (with the special fence) or a catio. Under no circumstances should he be allowed to roam outside or in a garden that is not cat-proof. We owe him (and his mother) his safety and security. Some of our adopters have successfully trained/trained their SHE cats.
If you've been touched by Dizzy's story or how handsome he is, or if you like the idea of a lap cat, why not consider this beautiful boy?
Since Dizzy has never had people of his own, we expect that he will develop a close bond with his adopter/family. All our adoptions are subject to a successful home check (done via video call) and an adoption fee. See What is the adoption procedure at SHE?
If you would like to offer to adopt Dizzy or would like to know more about our adoption procedure in general, no Contact on. Myself or another member of our volunteer Admin team will do our best to respond to you within 24 hours.
