Description:
Loving, Funny, Glutton for Cuddles Mickey is down for a good scratch anytime, anywhere. This sweet boy is all about human attention, and will never turn a pet down! Mickey is a distinguished gentleman. Due to being blind from a young age, Mickey does not have the urge to jump onto high areas - he will leave your things, and counters, alone! He just wants to be in the room with you! As long as there is a human or two to give Mickey the attention he craves, he is a happy camper. He would adore someone who is able to be home often, or a family with lots of people able to continuously give him pets in his forever home. Children around are more than welcome to Mickey! He adores the attention they give him, and adjusts well to their high energy. He also can adjust well to canines around. He just needs a little time to get used to the new scent and recognize it is a new friend rather than a potential danger! Mickey is too curious to maintain good boundaries with other felines. This is the one way he forgets his manners! He would be great as the only feline in his fur-ever home, or with a more laid-back, and independent cat who won't be all up in his space and may not mind him sometimes invading theirs! Mickey leads with his nose and ears! He voices his excitement when he smells food, and can hear it being made for him! As he senses people around him, Mickey is quick to say hello and ask for pets! He would be so upset with himself if he didn't announce his presence and missed out on some coveted pets and affection! Leaving cozy beds around the place will easily attract Mickey to those spots. He enjoys a life of luxury, and will expect to continue that! He is quite the snuggly cat, and will eagerly snuggle up with his humans, or in a soft, well padded area. The occasional crinkle toy will catch Mickey's attention, and he cannot help but attack! He still gets random bursts of energy, especially when catnip is involved. For the most part, he is just a big bundle of snuggles walking around waiting for affection from his humans! Blind cats are amazing and use their hearing and memory to navigate their home. Just show him where everything is, and Mickey will adjust to his new environment and be asking for pets in no-time! If you can be patient with this sweet boy as he learns about his new surroundings, and finds his way, he will endlessly thank you with cuddles and love! He has so much to give, and cannot wait to start showing off how sweet he is for his fur-ever family! All APA! cats are fully vetted, spayed or neutered, and have updated vaccines and a microchip. Lifetime support is offered by our Cat Behavior Team. For further information or to meet Mickey, please email adopt@austinpetsalive.org.
