Notes from Cats Cradle Shelter Inc.
Messi (1 year old)
Messi is a handsome buff tabby cat with gold eyes, and he is equal parts leisure and action. When he is asleep or lounging, he looks like a work of art with his calm and beautiful presence. But he is also active enough to need an engaged human to take time with him. Messi has lots of energy and would benefit from play therapy, especially if his adopter could get out the interactive toys for fun sessions twice a day. Messi is keen on treats and would enjoy other boredom busters like food puzzles, too. For nap time, Messi likes to be up high, and he'd love to have cat trees where he can bask, tiger-like, on the upper perches. Messi would thrive in an adult-only home that lets him be as active as he wants to be but also brings out his gentler, affectionate, and relaxed dimensions.
Messi is currently on a medication, but there's potential to wean him off it in a calm home situation.
