Meet Breeze

*This animal is a part of our “Seniors for Seniors” program where we offer senior adopters an opportunity to adopt an eligible pet at a discounted fee.* Breeze is a charming old man who loves to be near his people. He came to his foster family in mid-April, and immediately was interested in receiving attention. It took a few days before he became more comfortable approaching and exploring his new apartment on his own, and once he did, he revealed a playful side as well by chasing catnip mice and climbing on his cat tree. He uses his scratching post/pads like a champ! He is very gentle and hasn't displayed any bad habits in a comfortable environment. He is a loud purrer and will vocalize when he needs something. Breeze loves petting, belly rubs, and giving hugs. His last owner even said he will sleep under the blankets with you, though he hasn't quite settled in enough in his foster home to exhibit that behavior. Breeze originally came from Utah, where he lived with a family. That family had a young child who pulled on his whiskers, and now he is very scared of young children. Due to this incident, he was rehomed in Utah. He also grew up with large dogs that he got along with. He made the journey from Utah to Minnesota with his most recent owners, and was doing alright. Unfortunately, his relationship with their other cats was not great, and continued to deteriorate to the point they felt surrender was the best option. With that, Breeze will need to go to a home without young kids or other cats.    Breeze is severely lactose intolerant and has a food sensitivity to chicken, so he is on a specific diet and a thorough examination of ingredients is required before he tries new foods.  Breeze is from an owner surrender.
