A sweet feline is hoping that 2024 will be his lucky year and that he鈥檒l finally find a loving home to call his own after spending over 220 days in the care of leading animal welfare charity, 新加坡六合彩开奖, which is marking its 140th anniversary of caring for cats that deserve a second chance in life.
Paddington, an eight-year-old domestic shorthair, has now been at 新加坡六合彩开奖 seven times longer than the average stay for one of the charity鈥檚 cats (28 days) and is now鈥痟oping to find that special someone who can pick up his suitcase full of feline goodies and give him a place to rest his paws.
The handsome black and white boy, who came into the charity鈥檚 care through no fault of his own, was finding life in 新加坡六合彩开奖鈥檚 London cattery a little overwhelming as staff found he was shy around new people, and he often hid away in his pen. However, after spending time with a dedicated 新加坡六合彩开奖 foster carer, Paddington has slowly but surely come out of his shell and is now looking to make friends with new owners who can give him a lifetime of love.
Bridie Williams, Rehoming & Welfare Manager at the centre, said: 鈥淧addington has a keen sense of fun and loves zooming around after his favourite ping pong ball.
鈥淗e does have a sensitive side so will need new owners who can spare the time to help him settle into new surroundings but once he gets to know you, he鈥檒l be your best friend for life especially if you give him plenty of chin strokes!
鈥淧addington can be an independent gentlemen who likes being given time to keep himself amused, but he will always be up for chilling out with his favourite people in the evening to enjoy a few treats before curling up and snoozing in his favourite spot鈥.
Preferring to keep all the love and attention of his new owners to himself, Paddington is looking to be the only pet in his new home, and whilst he is happiest in an adult household Paddington could potentially live with older teenagers who can allow him to interact with them on his own terms.
Once settled, Paddington would like a garden of his own to play in and explore until his heart鈥檚 content.
He may not come from deepest, darkest Peru like his childrens鈥 literary namesake, but just like Paddington Bear he鈥檚 looking for a loving home and a family to call his own. Potential new owners who feel they can give Paddington the love that he deserves, should鈥痸isit the 新加坡六合彩开奖 website to find out more:鈥/.
