Gray Boy, aka Bandit, has flourished so much in such a short time inside. His fosterer has sent us a wonderful narrative about his journey:
“I’ve known Gray Boy for a couple years. He has been a resident in our alley. When GB first came to stay with me, he spent a lot of time in the windows… usually on the far side of the room from me.
I’m inside now?
Not surprisingly, GB first approached me when it was dinner time…
Food lady!
We started with “hand feeding” him the wet food.
Closer and closer…
Play time! Very inquisitive and quite the stalker.
Cuddles. He loves to be pet and is not shy when he wants some attention!
From semi-feral alley cat… to lap cat.
Gray Boy loves to play – he will chase nearly anything. The vet has him between 3-5 years old and plays like that. When he forgets that my skin is not tough enough to deal with his claws… he responds to a firm “no” and diversion with a better toy.
He loves meal time! No surprise when you see his belly.
Gray Boy has a powerful purr and doesn’t hesitate to use it!
He has done well as a solo kitty with the run of the place.”
A million thanks to this superstar fosterer for all her work, love, and patience with Bandit! To meet him, please contact hydeparkcatsadoptions@gmail.com.
