Socks

Socks and his amazing technicolour blanket are here to brighten up your day. This ginger heartthrob is looking to draw back the curtain and find a place to call home once more. He enjoys his fuss, will sit on laps and generally likes to enjoy life and have some fun and games along the way doing it. Given his past he would probably prefer to live in an adult only home with people who can let him find his paws and understand if he is a bit worried. Despite his friendly nature he is a sensitive lad at times who just needs the right environment to flourish in. So, if you know for certain that only Socks will do, keep reading to see if you could be his purr-fect match and give him the fur-ever home he deserves…

Other Notes

Socks arrived at the start of February after he just wasn't getting on with some of his younger family members. He was a bit defensive and sadly had to come to stay at Mayhew. He was much loved and since coming to stay has been behaviourally assessed and given preventative treatment at Mayhew in the form of microchipping, neutering, vaccinations (at least first) and flea and worming treatment. Although he has had no treatment, Mayhew vets noticed a bit of plaque on his teeth which should be monitored for now and you can maybe add some dental diet to his food to help keep things on track. Now all he needs is a quiet loving home where he can really show of his loving nature.

Foster Carer Comments

Socks is a total love! I’m tempted to make up stories about how he’s problematic in the hopes that he will stay with us (his foster family) for longer, because he’s a cat that I would wholeheartedly adopt as my own if I could do so. He is friendly, happy to do his thing and playful as well. When I tap my chest while lying on the sofa or bed, he knows to jump up and come and sit on me. He loves being petted and fussed over and is a beautiful boy with his gorgeous ginger tabby coat. He hates being in the cat carrier, but most cats don’t like it so he’s quite typical in that aspect but whoever will get to take him home will have the best time with this sweet, friendly guy who’d be a boon to any home.
