NAME: BISBY Sex: Male neutered Color/Pattern: white and black Breed (s): Domestic long hair Weight: Big Age: 2 years BDAY approx: March 24, 2024 Coat length: LOOONNNGGG Description Bisby is a Fluffy, Poofy, massive cat. Very handsome and a little shy. He knows he is beautiful. Bisby is animated and big boned, with VERY long white fur with black patches. Personality Bisby is a professional ankle rubber. He is big and buff, and a bit of a hog. He is extremely food motivated and looks you in the eye and meows for more! He runs to the bowl and butts any other cat over to get his head in first. He is good about sharing after he has had his first bite- even though he is the biggest and could easily bully them away from the bowl if he wanted to. Bisby needs other cats around. He currently lives in his foster home with 3 other foster cats and gets along very well with them. He loves to play chase and explore other rooms with them. He is hesitant about new things but watches and learns from the more outgoing cat he lives with and follows him around. He gets excited when you come into the room, and jumps down to pose and posture for you by your feet, so you can admire him. He will stop what he is doing and push his head into your hand if you reach down so you will scratch his head. He likes cuddles on your lap so you will keep scratching. Butt scratches are welcome too. He draws the line at hugs, but will tolerate one if it is quick and you put him down immediately so he can give you the side eye for humiliating him like that. Bisby is communicative too. He watches you and reads your body language. Pretty sure he understands English. He acts smart like that, then makes decisions that seem a bit odd. You can almost see the wheels spinning in his head. He understands where you want him to go and goes there. Verbally he is intelligent. His timing might be off. Like why did you just run straight smack into my ankles? He may have a bit of a lack of self confidence that hinders him, but he makes up for it in curiosity. Background Bisby's mother, Maddie, gave birth to 4 kittens in a planter in a front yard in Katy. They were found at 1 day old. Their finder raised them with their momma in her bathroom. When the finder's health took a turn for the worse, a friend brought the kitty family to a GNAR foster home when the kittens were 3 months old.
