Junior

Meet Junior!

This handsome one year old red and white boy is looking for his perfect forever home.

Junior had a rough start to life.  He was the only survivor from a litter of five kittens.  He was kept in an incubator and tube fed until he was big enough to regulate his own body heat and weaned onto homemade cooked cat food.  Since he was hand raised junior is extremally social.  He always wants to be with people and is a definite lap cat. 

We are extremely bonded to Junior as a result of hand raising him, and love him to pieces, We would keep him here, but we want him to go somewhere where he will get the attention he craves and deserves.

Junior does have small nares. As a result he need his nose wiped a couple of times of days and his breathing is sometimes audible. His small nares do not impact his ability to play or cause him any discomfort. 

In terms of grooming needs he is lower maintenance. His eyes do not drain badly, but we still recommend daily eye cleaning.  His coat is not quick to mat, and with a proper bath, blow dry and comb out every six to eight weeks he should be good to go. Currently he is shaved into a comb cut to make his maintenance even easier.

He does have a bad habit of eating shoelaces, so we recommend that you store your shoes that have laces out of his reach. 

We believe that he should settle into his new home quickly as long as you have a warm lap for him, but remember that it is important to that you confine any new cat to one small room such a bathroom or bedroom for at least three days to help keep them as stress-free as possible. 

 

While in isolation, you can monitor how well they eat, drink, and uses their litter box. Don't be surprised if your kitten doesn't poop for 24 to 48 hours. This is normal behavior for a cat when it has a change of environment.

You should place your new cat in his/her new litter box several times when they arrive at home. They likely will not use the litter box at that time. Instead, they probably just
jump out and carry on with exploring their new environment, but placing them in the litter box will remind them of where it is when it's time to potty. If by some off chance your cat pees or poops outside of the litter box - put the waste in the appropriate litter box. Do not allow the cat to come out of quarantine until they are using the litter box.

Make sure to sit in the room with your cat, at their level and interact with them using a toy and offer lots of gentle pets. Nautilus Persians are known for their affectionate personalities and love receiving pets and cuddles. Your new cat should come
right up to you and seek your love.

His rehoming fee is $400. He is neutered and his shots are updated.
