Support and Health

Do I have any medical conditions?

Existing conditions

Sheldon has historic and current medical concerns, namely a low grade heart murmur and history of anaemia and vaccine reaction, that will require consideration before this pet is rehomed. Our rehoming team will be able to give you further information if you apply to rehome this pet and you are a successful match. We would also advise that any medical concern, be that historic or ongoing, is discussed with your own vet prior to any book out appointment. 

Who I can live with

Can I live with dogs?

No

Can I live with cats?

No

Can I live with small pets?

Yes

Additional information

Sheldon would prefer to be the only pet in the home. He could live with small pets as long as they are housed separately and securely.

Family and environment

What kind of family am I looking for?

Sheldon will need a calm and quiet family that will respect his boundaries and take time to get to know him, on his terms – as he’s a lovely boy once he’s confident around you. He would preferably go to a household that doesn’t have children younger than 13.

What type of environment would suit me?

Sheldon will need full-roam of house and will require outdoor access once settled. He is best suited to a home with a quiet back garden located in a low traffic area.

About Sheldon

Sheldon came in through no fault of his own, from a loving home that could no longer meet his needs. He’s an elderly cat who’s looking for the right home to spend his retirement years. He’s a sweet, older gentleman once he gets to know you. He likes people that can respect his boundaries and his personal space. He enjoys gentle head rubs but also appreciates his own company at times. So will need a family that has children over the age of 13 that can give him the quiet home he deserves.

Things to note

Sheldon is currently living in a foster home and will be allocated a temporary unit at the centre on the day of book-out. Most cats find unfamiliar environments quite stressful and this can affect their behaviour in the cattery, meaning that you might not be able to observe what the cat’s temperament is typically like in a familiar setting. If you would like to meet this cat prior to rehoming, as a minimum you will be able to see the cat, but this may be the extent of the interaction depending on the cat’s response to the new environment.
