Madeline A258824

Hi, I’m Madeline!

From my foster family: "Madeline is a sweet cat who is looking for a quiet home with a patient family who will give her the time and patience she needs to feel safe and comfortable. She may be shy at first and sometimes gets frightened of sudden movements and loud noises. With a little time, patience and a calm environment, her true personality shines! Madeline loves to play chase with a laser pointer and play interactively with wand toys. She will sometimes play on her own with catnip toys or squeaky mice. She loves her treats, especially Temptations and tube treats such as Churu."

The staff at the OHS call me a Poet! Did you know that Poets thrive in calm, stable environments? When things are a little too new and different, these kitties have a hard time showing their true personalities. Because Poets find change so hard, they usually like lots of safe places to hide and high perches to rest on. While each Poet is a little different, things that usually bring them out of their shell include playing with their favourite toys, eating some of their favourite treats, and seeking attention from their favourite people. During periods of change, Poets need a safe refuge where they be surrounded by these favourite things.

Poets can have different preferences, and it might take a little while to figure them out. Some Poets prefer play interactions where they can stalk and hunt in a fun game with you, while others may enjoy curling in your lap for a cozy snooze. While you may not see a lot of them at first, they'll be thinking of you... and after they settle in, you'll think they've always belonged!

Special Considerations:

• I cannot have any cat siblings.
• I often feel frightened by new people and situations. To help me adjust, I will need a safe space in the home to call my own. With time and patience, I will come out of my shell and show my wonderful personality.
• I don't always love to be picked up.
• My canine (fang) tooth is broken at the very tip. The tooth otherwise appears normal, but I will need to have it monitored regularly by a veterinarian and they may recommend extraction or root canal of the tooth in the future.

I am currently relaxing in a foster home as I wait for my forever family. Please contact an adoptions staff to book an appointment to meet me!
