Luca is the most beautiful gray tabby boy with striking green eyes and two-coloured whiskers (black and white). Luca is a very strong and sturdy boy. He began his life living under a porch with his siblings, and was therefore justifiably shy. But after a lot of love and patience in his foster home, he can now be picked up quickly (just to be placed on the bed for pets) and loves to be pet all over. He loves having his ears massaged and his nose rubbed gently. He even rolls over for belly rubs! He is the most gentle boy, and if Luca were human, he would be an empath. Luca has always accepted pets while safely tucked in his cat tree, but now once his foster mom starts petting, he jumps down and rubs against her for even more closeup pets and the purr motor ramps up big style! Tap his backend and you have the very definition of elevator butt, ready for more scritches! Luca eats very well and sometimes has to be reminded not to head-butt his brother Levi to steal his food. When out of the kitty suite and roaming around his fosters’ apartment, he inspects every corner and loves to look out the window at the pigeons below. He loves water and likes it when his foster mom refresh the water in the morning and after she finishes work. He also loves ice cubes in the water but gets scared if they make a cracking noise. The other night he was roaming free while his foster mom snoozed on the couch, and he jumped up on her and pawed at her ever so gently for pets. It was so cute! With time, patience and love, Luca will blossom into the best kitty companion. Luca is greatly comforted by his brother Levi and it would be wonderful if Luca and Levi could be adopted together. If not with his brother, Luca must be adopted into a home with another gentle feline friend who can be a companion to Luca and help him build confidence. Luca’s foster parents sing to him daily in a soft calming voice, and Luca has made it clear that his favourite songs are ABBA tunes and his favourite team is the Toronto Blue Jays!
