Calcifer is a young cat with a gentle spirit and unique needs, best suited for someone experienced and patient. He lives with the effects of neurological trauma, which means he requires hand expression multiple times a day to help with both urination and defecation. His current foster is a veterinary technician accustomed to this routine, and his ideal adopter should also have background or confidence in expressing bladders. Daily medications are vital—thankfully, Calcifer eats his wet food enthusiastically, so getting him medicated is never a struggle. These meds help manage his mega-colon and make his day-to-day care smoother. Despite everything, Calcifer is playful and enjoys jumping, running, and keeping up with other cats, proving that he doesn't let his condition dampen his spirit. He might seem shy at first, but once he gets to know his people, he forms deep and lasting bonds. Other animals don't faze him much; once settled, he acclimates well. Anyone able to meet Calcifer's specialized needs will earn the loyalty of a truly grateful companion. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
