About Flint
Flint is a unique cat with a lively personality and a streak of independence. If you enjoy cats with character, Flint will keep you entertained with his quirks and charm. He adores spending time perched on his cat tree, peering out the window, and can't resist a good play session with a wand toy. Flint is affectionate on his own terms—he'll ask for pets, and also let you know when he needs a break. He’s best matched with an experienced cat person who understands feline body language and respects when he needs space. Flint prefers to initiate attention and tolerates being picked up occasionally, but doesn't seek it out. A calm, adult household will suit him best, as young or busy children overwhelm him. He wants to be your one and only cat—other cats stress him out. Flint may have feline idiopathic cystitis (FIC), so a stable, low-stress routine is important for his health. He’s currently staying in a foster home as part of a shelter getaway program, getting a much-needed break from shelter life while waiting for his permanent match.
