Meet Bobby

*Update April 2021: Unfortunately he's been in our cattery facility for 3 months now after his foster carer moved interstate. He's coped surprisingly well but he's really overdue to go to a proper home getting the ongoing affectionate and play time that he deserves. *

Bobby likes to walk around the house as though he is boss, he is not shy at all and will make himself at home anywhere. Bobby is fine with large dogs. He hasn't been with another cat but I think he'd be fine with another calm feline friend.

A fairly quiet boy, he is really a delight to have around, he loves a cuddle, loves smooching and when he's not sitting at the window watching the world go by he does enjoy playing. His previous foster carers found he enjoyed jumping out in front of them and running off - only to then come and grab your ankles for a quick nibble (very cheeky). But he's yet to do any ankle nibbling in the 4 months he's been in our cattery.

Bobby loves to wander around the back yard, which we supervise, and is easy to pick up to return him indoors. Ideally he'd like a home with some space to run around, with a safe garden or yard where he can play and explore both inside and out.

Bobby is probably best placed into a home with no very young children as he is quite a large and strong cat, and can play a bit rough for littlies. However he's very easy for older children to handle and is quite smoochy and cuddly with them.

If you'd like to learn more about this almost dog-like cat, or visit him in his temporary home in Riverstone, please contact his carer.
