Milo

Meet the Mastermind: A Sweet, Silly Athlete Looking for His Person Name: Milo Age: 7 Years Breed: American Shorthair (Master of Mischief) They say some cats are “just cats,” but Milo is a tiny, furry roommate with a genius-level IQ. He is the perfect blend of a high-energy athlete and a devoted cuddle-bug. Due to an upcoming international move, we are heartbroken to have to find him a new “forever” headquarters. 🌟 Why You’ll Fall in Love The Intelligence: He doesn’t just watch you; he studies you. He has mastered French-style door handles and will happily demonstrate his break-out skills if he thinks there are treats on the other side. The Playmate: He’s not a “sit on the sidelines” kind of guy. He loves a good game of fetch and thrives on active, rough-and-tumble play. The Adventurer: He is harness-trained! While he’s a bit sensitive to loud city noises (trucks are his nemesis), he absolutely loves exploring quiet gardens or calm outdoor spaces with his human. The Sweetheart: When the day is done, he is “seriously sweet.” He’s a soul-mutt in a cat’s body. 🩺 Health & Physical Profile Milo was born with a unique inward-curving ribcage . Because of this, he has a few special requirements: Weight Management: He needs to stay lean to keep pressure off his chest. Gentle Handling: He needs a home where people understand he’s a “handle with care” model, as he can occasionally wheeze if overexerted. No Kids: Because of his physical condition and high energy, he’s best suited for an adult-only home or one with older, cat-savvy teenagers. 💅 The “Liquid Rage” Clause Let’s talk about the paws. Milo is a firm believer in his right to “bear arms” (and keep them sharp). Nail Trims: One vet described him as “liquid rage” during trims. He finds the process incredibly stressful, and we have moved toward a “peace treaty” where we provide plenty of scratching posts instead of fighting him for a manicure. Furniture: He needs proper stimulation and designated scratching surfaces to keep your sofa safe. Strict Policy: We will not rehome him to anyone considering declawing. He needs a guardian who respects his boundaries and his “natural weaponry.” 🏠 The Ideal Home He would thrive as an only cat or in a home with a very high-energy feline friend. His current sister is a bit too relaxed for his “full-throttle” play style, so he’s looking for a human who wants an interactive companion. He comes with a “Success Kit”: Litter box & starter litter A bag of his current high-quality food His absolute favorite treats and toys ** This is a courtesy post. This isn’t our cat but we are helping the family find him a new home. They are located in Nanaimo but willing to help drive anywhere to facilitate an adoption for the perfect home !
