Rufus Meowright- Offered By Owner, Domestic Mediumhair For Adoption In

Price:

$60

Location:

Hillsboro, OR

Description:

Rufus is the most social cat I have ever met. When someone enters my home, he immediately wants to say hello and is requesting pets. He is very calm, takes lots of naps, but can be playful when intimated by a human or other animals. Rufus has always lived as an indoor/outdoor cat, but he MUST be an indoor only cat due to health issues that need better monitoring. I know this will make him sad, but it's what is best for him. He is prone to getting urinary crystals, and it can quickly lead to kidney failure. The first time this happened (only crystals, no kidney failure) was about 1.5 years ago, he was put on a prescription food diet. Despite that, he had two episodes within two weeks of each other a little over a month ago of kidney failure and required overnight care at the vet. He is now fully recovered, doing incredibly well, and back to his normal eating habits. He is a big tomcat at 17 lbs. He handles having his front claws clipped well. He uses his scratching posts consistently and loves a mid-height cat tree. Knows how to use a litter box and only eats dry food (I've tried wet foods to help with his crystals as a result of dehydration, but he is not interested). He has been a patient with Liberty Animal Hospital in South Salem, and I would recommend continuing his care there since he knows his history and they are an amazing team that also love him (they said he is the easiest and sweetest cat they've ever had to care for). He comes with a litter box, whatever food I have left, an automatic feeder, and I have a bed for him that he hasn't used a lot, but it might bring him comfort when he moves. This guy wants to be friends with everyone and enjoys being in the company of others, so if you want a furry addition to the family that is all love and purrs, he is your man! This cat is offered for adoption due to the owner's personal circumstances. Rehoming fee is $60. For more information on meeting and adopting this kitty, please fill out a pre-adoption application under "ADOPT" on our website at WWW.CATSCRADLERESCUE.COM.
