Meet Cory McCloskey

Approximate Date of Birth:1/15/2019 Description:   Hello! My name is Cory and I am a handsome little ginger guy who would like to be your quiet companion. With your gentle scritches and petting, on my head and neck my inner extrovert will slowly emerge, however, and it will not be long before I start chatting to let you know how much I like your affection. Once I am ready for long strokes from my head to my tail, I might even show you my "turn and twirl in circles" move. I have also been known to jump and dance at the wand toy! I am an easygoing guy who likes other easygoing types (both kitties and people!) and I imagine that my purr-fect family is out there waiting for me! Words to Describe Me: Quiet, non-aggressive, comfortable with other easy-going kitties and enjoys their presence Favorite Place to Sleep: On top of my scratch pad, under the rocking chair, on the sofa, or in the darkened guest room on the bed Favorite Toy: A wand toy with a mouse on the end, or a plastic ball to chase. Perfect Day: Gentle chin scratches before breakfast, some play with the wand toy, a leisurely nap. Wake up, stretch, Repeat! Kitty's Likes: Gentle forehead scratches which turn into full length strokes and scratches to the tip of my tail! And I love to be brushed! Kitty's Dislikes: I'm learning to be more comfortable being picked up or sitting on a lap. Fastest Way to Get Me to Purr: Scratch my chin and my cheeks! Favorite Treat: "Gravy" (water mixed with my pate), or Churu! Job Title in Foster: Mr. Mellow - Keeping a calm, relaxing vibe going for the household kitty clan. When I Grow Up, I Want to Be: Your quiet, easygoing buddy who appreciates your affection, enjoys a chat and some wand toy action for a little exercise! Other Info: Cory is a super sweet boy who is remembering again that people can be his best friends and that life as a house cat is pretty darn nice! He is working on his shyness, but he is truly a gentle guy and has made daily progress with his social and conversational skills. A routine of pets, scratches, brushing and wand play spread throughout the day have helped him transition to his new life, and he is comfortable with other kitties who just go about their business and allow him to go about his.                Good with Cats: Loves cats. Good with Dogs: Unknown .  Good with Children: Can live in a house where children occasionally visit, as long as the children are pet-friendly.  Companion Animal: Requires a companion if left alone for long periods of time.
