We were contacted to help beautiful Gege find a new forever home due to his family’s 13-month-old son having severe cat allergies. Gege is a 10 1/2-year-old male exotic shorthair cat that has been with his family since he was a kitten. They are heartbroken yet hopeful that they can give him the life he deserves by making the hard decision to give him up. Gege is now being confined to one room so he can stay away from the owner’s son who is allergic . We are here to help Gege find a new home where he can continue to thrive. Gege is a very gentle and well-behaved cat. He loves to play with toys, chasing paper balls, and his ultimate favorite toy is a wand toy that he loves to chase. He loves climbing high places such as his cat tree and the top of the refrigerator. Gege is affectionate and clingy; he loves to be petted, especially on his head and chin. He purrs away when he’s happy and shows you his belly. He loves to follow his family around wherever they go, and one of his favorite activities is lounging in the sun, sunbathing. Gege is a healthy cat, up-to-date on vaccinations, neutered, and FIV/FELV negative. Gege has always been an only pet and has never been around cats or dogs. Gege is great with kids. We are hoping to find the perfect home for Gege to restart his life and experience the love and joy he deserves. If anyone would like to meet and adopt Gege, please apply online. https://www.statenislandhopeanimalrescue.org/applications
