Balor is a stunning medium-haired black cat with a big personality and an even bigger purr. This confident boy is endlessly affectionate and thrives on human attention. He’s usually underfoot, purring and chattering, and loves to curl up on the bed—ideally on your pillow—for cozy snuggles. New people don’t usually scare him; in fact, he’ll likely greet you with a head bump and flop before you even sit down. Balor is also very food motivated and eats with the enthusiasm of someone who’s missed a few meals in the past. He's a speedy eater, so he may benefit from a slow feeder to help him pace himself. He hasn’t met young children, but older or cat-savvy kids should be a good fit. Balor does get a bit jealous when other cats compete for his human's attention. He’s been known to bulldoze his way into the action—and if another cat is too clingy with his humans, he might let them know with a gentle chomp. That said, he coexists peacefully with laid-back feline companions who are content to keep their distance and let Balor be the star. He will also play with and groom other cats who know their place. If you're looking for a loyal, loving, attention-seeking companion with a soft coat, a loud purr, and a big appetite for life (and snacks!), Balor is ready to be your main man.
About Me:
Rescued from a rural cat colony south of Ottawa, Balor had a badly damaged eye when he was found—but thanks to surgery to remove it, he's now fully healed and thriving as a one-eyed cuddle machine!
Notes:
The adoption fee includes a health check, first vaccination in a series and any that become due while in care, first anti-parasite treatments needed in care, spay or neuter and microchip at our Veterinary partner. There is a 10% discount when you adopt 2 cats/kittens. The adopter will be responsible for any vaccine or boosters, anti-parasite treatments that are needed after adoption. Kittens usually need 3 vaccines, one month apart starting at age 7 weeks. Juveniles and Adult cats usually require 2 vaccines one month apart in the first year, then annual vaccines. Deworming is recommended at the time of each vaccine appointment. If you are intending to adopt, please be aware that your Veterinary clinic may be experiencing backlogs in scheduling appointments, so do not delay calling your clinic to book your new cat's needed booster appointment(s). Please note that cats are not tested for FIV/FeLV nor can FIP be predicted. We will share any medical information gathered during our health checks and observations revealed during their time in care. But it is important to know that some illnesses can have an incubation period of 10 days, which means that a cat can leave in good health but get sick a few days post adoption. In addition, the stress of a new environment can affect a cats’ immune system.
