Patience is a virtue, and this boy takes it very seriously! Meet Blitzen, a handsome cat who hasn't had the easiest go of life recently. Having come into our care wounded and scared, it's no wonder why he has such a hard time trusting people. In shelter, Blitzen completely shut down, and we knew he needed more than what we had to offer. One of our wonderful foster parents took him home and has spent a lot of time helping Blitzen come out of his very hard shell ever since! We've learned that Blitzen's favourite greeting is a good old fashioned hiss, but he doesn't know that he's not as menacing as he thinks.

It will take Blitzen a long time to warm up to his new home and family, and it's important that his future adopters go slow with him. He can be a curious, playful boy, and loves a good snuggle in the evenings, but gets startled easily and needs a safe space to run to when he is spooked. With time, you'll find that Blitzen is quite fond of getting cheek scratches, and he might even roll over and purr for them if you're patient! He is most confident to explore at night when everyone is sleeping, and you will probably hear him running around with a ball or a catnip toy. A calm, quiet home without young children would make for the perfect home, and now that he's coming around in foster, we're on the hunt for his forever family! We know that behind his rough exterior, Blitzen is an absolute sweetheart, and he'd love for you to help him get there. Email Adoptions today!
