Lucas is about 2 years old. He is part
Siamese, likes to answer you when you talk to him, and tells you when he
is hungry, but apart from that, he is very quiet. He was rescued on a
night in January, after being found badly beaten, and thrown onto
someone's terrace. He sustained fractures of the pelvis and hips, and
damage to one of his back legs. Understandably, he was terrified of
people, and in immense pain. Following months of love and care in a
foster home, his transformation is amazing. With medical care he is
recovering from his wounds, and is able to walk.
He loves to spend hours lying in his bed, and is satisfied with little
walks around the house, and is very happy just using a litter tray. As
he will probably never recover the full use of a cat's flexibility, he
will be much happier in an apartment or house where there is no pressure
for him to go outside. He does not run, and cannot jump any great
height, but can manage the sofa!
Lucas would be a wonderful indoor companion cat for someone living
quietly alone. A home with other cats, dogs or young children would
probably be too much for him. What he needs is a calm and loving
environment. For information on how to meet Lucas, please contact Chris
on 630 422 563.
