About Cecil James

Cecil James is a charming gentleman with a distinct personality, though he may seem a bit reserved at first. In the bustling environment of the shelter, he prefers to watch from a high perch rather than seek attention. However, once he feels at ease, he reveals himself as a friendly and lovable companion. His previous owner shared that he has quite the character at home, including a quirky fondness for unattended loaves of bread. While he tends to keep his distance from other cats in the shelter, he's successfully shared his home with another feline before. A calm and patient household would allow him to relax and showcase more of his vibrant personality. Cecil James also manages luxating patellas in both hind legs, which means his kneecaps can occasionally slip out of place. Surgery isn't an option, so his condition is managed with medication, and his future family will need to continue his care and keep an eye on his comfort. Not the first cat to come running when you arrive, Cecil James has a sweet and humorous side waiting to be discovered. Just make sure to keep the bread out of reach. Ready to fall in love?
