Friar, Domestic Shorthair For Adoption In Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Price:

$150

Location:

Philadelphia, PA

Description:

Come meet this goofy tabby boy, Friar! Named for his previously bald head, Friar has been on a prescription food diet to heal his sensitive skin. Now he's got a full head of fur back, but the nickname's kind of stuck! Friar is an active, silly cat who's not afraid to jump high and throw his weight around, especially when in pursuit of a wand toy or a laser. Because of his high energy level, he can get quite fussy when he's bored, so don't be surprised if he pulls the occasional "look at meeee, or maybe I'll just poke this here table object until it falls" move. His naughty side also sometimes manifests as nice lil "love chomps" for attention, for which he gets redirected onto toys. It might help to have him in a household with another cat who can really match his confident energy (or at least roll really well with his shenanigans), but Friar historically may be a little too pushy for more passive kitties that just want to nap all day. Despite the "no thoughts, head empty" look he tends to wear, Friar is actually quite expressive, and will sometimes answer when you talk to him. He's a very smart boy and has learned a few tricks while in foster care- check out his added video on this page to see the tricks he's learned!. If you've got some cat savviness and have enough time and attention to give Friar, then give this handsome little man a chance! He'd benefit from a home with adults only or potentially with older (thinks teens) savvy, cat-experienced kiddos who can keep his training and playtime consistent alongside their parents. Friar would also be a great candidate for "brain games" while he eats, like puzzle feeders and toys that make him work for his food! Age: 1-2 Years old How I came to PAWS: Found as a stray, Friar was surrendered because wasn't getting along with the finder's more laid back cats. Animal ID#: A559900 âI am not at the shelter.
