NEEDS TO BE AN ONLY INDOOR CAT
OLDER CAT SAVVY CHILDREN
SHE’S ON OLDER LADY LOOKING FOR A RETIREMENT HOME WITH A SPECIAL PERSON
UNKNOWN HOW SHE IS WITH DOGS
Poppy is a 12 year old Maine-Coon mix who is incredibly loving and affectionate with her foster mum. Her favourite activity is curling up in bed at night with her foster mum, sitting on her lap and purring loudly. She sleeps in bed with her foster mum every night and cuddles up close for cwtches.
While she has a beautiful, fluffy, long coat and she is very good at taking care of it herself. Not much additional grooming is needed to make sure it stays in check. Despite her age she is very good at taking care of herself.
Poppy was very scared when she arrived and spent a lot of time hiding. However, by respecting her boundaries and allowing her to come out by herself a trusting loving relationship has developed. As she needs a lot of patience and understanding of her social cues, she would only be suitable with older, more understanding children, who could give her space to begin with.
She has not been tested with dogs but is very scared of other cats, so it is recommended that she is the only cat. That is also the reason why she is best kept indoors.
Poppy enjoys leading a quiet life of leisure, sleeping or prowling around different parts of her domain. She has very short munchkin legs so is unable to jump up on high surfaces. This means she can’t jump up on things like kitchen counters and get in too much trouble.
She isn’t particularly vocal, so she won’t be meowing and keeping you up. As an older cat she doesn’t have much interest in any toys, but she does love sitting on you for a fuss and a cuddle. She can also be quite possessive following you around the house.
Poppy would need a home with lots of space and hidey holes so she can be alone if she needs to be. She would benefit from an outside enclosed space or catio so she can enjoy outdoor time without roaming the neighbourhood.
