Henry is a 6 year old black and white male who, bless him, has formed a deep attachment to his scratching post and loves to spend most of his time in his yard as close to it as possible. It remains to be seen if the cold weather drives a wedge between them if he transfers his affections to his heated shelf and blankets.
Perhaps Henry feels protected by his totem pole, as he has been quite accident prone in the past – unfortunate encounters with cars, cats and kids have instilled in him a certain wariness and sense of self preservation.
Henry needs experienced, adult owners who will understand that this boy needs his space and does not like to be overly fussed.
He loves playing with his fish-on- a-stick if the scratching post can play too and is happy for a bit of a stroke and a chat as long as you don’t want to pick him up and squeeze him.
This funny little character would be more than happy to be left to his own devices while you are out at work providing he has got cat flap access to a garden and that there are no big bully cats next door as he is rubbish at fighting and always loses.
