Description

‘Pacino’ on account of his gangster looking face only instead he’s a big softie- couldn’t hurt a fly- living with dogs & other cats © Let me introduce myself “I’m called ‘Pacino’ & I also go by the name of ‘Whitey’ to my friends. Back in December of 25’ though I prefer not to think back to those times, I turned up in someone’s yard. It’s all a bit of a blur though I seem to recall that someone abandoned me like a used tissue. I was in a bad way and so very hungry. I’d succumbed to the perils of nature and man and really wasn’t sure I’d get through the winter. They left me alone in the deep snow with not enough meat on my bones to keep me warm. A kind lady that the charity knows tried to find someone who might take me in by posting to social media and that’s when leesa spotted me. Unfortunately not long after that I disappeared again - or at least they thought I had- I just didn’t know they wanted to help me and had crawled off before they could bundle me up in their arms. I went looking for food and shelter. Luckily I turned up again in their garden and this time they managed to get me safe knowing that the charity would step in to try to find a good adopter. I’ve always been friendly and easy to handle it’s just there are so many cats and dogs to help that we can’t all be saved. I’m staying with the lady whose garden I ended up in - she takes very good care of me & leesa has covered the initial vet bill out of her own pocket & sent a contribution towards other ongoing costs as she had encouraged the lady to take me in having seen how desperate I looked. I’m adorable & impossibly affectionate. My home describes me like this:-“He still looks a bit scruffy, but he is such a wonderful cat. Very friendly with dogs, cats people.” I think my face makes me look unique & i’m told the girls like this kind of look. I am a charmer at the distinguished age of 4-5yrs but I’m no bad boy as I’m just too soft and loving to make the grade. As I’m not a baby I don’t have the annoying qualities of a young kitten if you have a resident cat looking for a calmer spirit. I live indoors because otherwise I’m at risk because the area I’m in might poison me &/or I’ll get hurt. It’s important we’re kept safe. I’m looking for my place in this world and whilst this feels like home I know they will be able to help other cats if I find the person who will cherish me forever. I’ve never had that. I'm Adopting A Cat If you are adopting a cat from Break The Chains, many of the same rules apply, but here are a few rules to help your cat adapt to their new life. ! Six weeks should be allowed before letting a new cat outside -even if they are used to being an outside cat. This advice was given by a lady with over thirty cats and many years experience of rescuing them. ! If you wish to keep your cat indoors permanently, consider having a 'catio' built where they can enjoy the fresh air. Have different levels where they can climb administration rest. ! An old wives tale which works, is to smear a little butter on their front paws when they arrive – they will wash it off and feel more relaxed. ! I personally don't agree with collars on cats. They can get snared in branches etc. ! Put a baby gate in place to separate your dogs from your cat until they are used to each other, it also provides a quick retreat safe place for the feline. ! Do not give them milk only water as milk isn't healthy for them. ! ALWAYS feed cats away from dogs and preferably on a higher surface. ! Consider installing a cat flap to make things easy for yourselves and the puss once the six week period is up. BTC can check in advance if a cat is used to being allowed outside or not. Feel free to ask us about your chosen cat. ! Refer to the section on 'microchips' which will also be relevant to your cat which will be in the ‘Welcome Pack’ when you adopt from us ! Remember, just like any new pet, cats can be 'upset' by the new environment they find themselves transported to. They may hide and will need time before they feel secure enough to let you pet them. It’s a good idea to provide an enclosed area, like a box with a hole cut out or a ready made cat igloo. Boxes are much favoured by cats and if you turn a sturdy one upside down and cut out a 'hole' chances are the cat will retreat into it and feel safe. Cat trees are also great because felines feel at their safest if off ground level. They love a high vantage point. Unlike dogs, most cats are territorial focused, not people focused. There are always exceptions, but on the whole, a cat will try to get back to its territory not its owner hence the six weeks guidance. Patience is very important with cats, they can be skitted easily and it's difficult to gain their trust if they get scared. ! We encourage you to read through the app/pack for dogs when you adopt from us as a lot of the information regarding water and food for example (have access to water at all times including through the night) is transitional to your new cat as well. Many cats like to graze throughout the day for instance. ! Cats: Same applies as for dogs re: castrations/ spaying. They will have flea, tick and worming prior to leaving. They will have the Rabies vaccine and in addition to this: ● Feligen RCP, or similar brand, for the active immunisation of healthy cats against three core feline diseases: feline panleucopaenia, feline rhinotracheitis, and feline calicivirus.A "fu felv snap test" to screen cats for feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and feline leukemia virus (FeLV). Commitment fee & home check applies. RBU (rescue back up) subject to contract. We practice none-discrimination policies (subject to checks) so don’t hesitate to get in touch.
