Lyric

Lyric needs a quiet home environment where he can get comfortable and gain confidence. He is a gentle, shy guy who needs a "cat whisperer", someone who will be patient and take his shyness in stride and work with him to help him gain confidence with love and time. He likes toy springs and likes to sit on a window ledge or cat tree . He loves to be brushed. He is not ready to be picked up and cuddled, but loves pets in his safe area - he has found a few hidey holes in his foster home where he watches life around him during the day and enjoys being pet there. He is being a typical cat ; more active in the evening . He uses his litter box well - bravely venturing from his 3rd floor refuge to 1st floor litterbox. With food as an incentive he will also come out to eat, which is a good time for his foster to pet and brush him, which he enjoys. On his part, he has lived peaceably with other cats. In a previous home there was some bullying against him though, some cats may not be accepting of him & his passivity, so we would suggest for his sake he be an only cat in your home. Medical Notes: Lyric has recently been started on Fluoxetine, in the transdermal form ( rubbed into the skin of his ears) We hope this anti-anxiety medication will help to relieve some of his anxiety about being out and about, and help him become braver in his interactions with people.
