About Flynn

Flynn is a 5 year old, large-framed beautiful gray tabby that we adopted at 4-5 weeks old with his twin sister after being found with his litter on Wheeler. Sadly, his sister passed away from a virus shortly after we got her. Our initial plan was for Flynn to be a barn cat, however, barn rules changed and he ended up becoming an indoor kitty with our other two cats. Initially, Flynn meshed pretty well with the crew. However, as he got older and bigger, he became more aggressive towards our other two cats and unfortunately put our little female into perpetual hiding for months as he would chase and attack her anytime she came out. He would also chase our other larger male cat, though not as frequently. We have been trying everything to create peace in the house with Flynn. We have spoken to our vet at length about this multiple times. We’ve tried drugs, separation, pheromone diffusers, reintroductions, multiple litterboxes, a bigger house. We even tried to make him an outdoor cat, but he broke his leg making it clear he prefers indoor life. Though the broken leg seemed to humble him for a season, he returned to his old ways once it healed. The aggression also seems to have ramped up since we moved into our new house, which, despite more space, seems to have increased his territorial behaviors. We love Flynn dearly. We have tried everything we can to keep him a part of our fur family. However, after years of trying, it has become apparent that our household peace (and sanity and safety of our other two cats) is at stake. We must find a new loving home for Flynn. We know it won’t be easy. He needs to go to a SINGLE CAT home, preferably with no other pets (I cannot speak to how he does with children as I haven’t seen him with young kids). He is also VERY bonded with my husband and will need ample time, space, and patience to be allowed to transition on his own timeline without pressure. He can be VERY loving and affectionate. He is quirky but also very funny. He is not a mean cat, but he has his tendencies and needs to be in a place where he cannot take out his dominant habits on other cats. Once he loves you, he will really love you. We care for him too much to send him to anyone out of fear of him being mistreated…or worse. But we know it will be a commitment from someone to give him the time and love he needs to be a new companion. We are very hopeful that the right, patient, loving family is out there for him who has a soft spot for the difficult ones who need love, too!
