Becker was living the outdoor life and fending for himself. As the weather began to get colder, a concerned animal lover brought him indoors and asked for our help. He has been in his new foster home for only 1 week and this is what they have to say about this handsome boy:

He is hard to photograph because he just wants to rub against your legs and purr. He quickly became comfortable, and loves to be around us. While sitting on the couch, he quickly climbs on our laps or collapses beside us wanting pets. Sometimes he climbs right into my arms and likes to be cradled. He does not play much with the toys, despite dangling them close to his face. He would rather rub his head on our arms.

He likes to sleep in our bed at night with us, especially on the pillows. He does not mind being picked up at all, most of the time he goes limp and lets you place him anywhere. He is a quiet cat unless you talk right to him then he has lots to say. He is a great cat for someone looking for a cat as a companion because he will always be around wanting more love but he is sometimes very persistent so he really needs someone willing to cuddle and enjoy his company all the time.

He is very cute and always has his eyes half open because he is just so happy to please. His tail is no problem and doesn't seem to bother him at all.(Becker came to us with a broken tail and after his examination, the vet determined that nothing needed to be done). We did bathe him last night. He was first afraid, but then almost seemed to enjoy the warm water and neither of us got scratched. After that he jumped right back in my lap still damp and cleaned himself off.

That is what we have learned so far from our week with Becker.

Looking for companion ?? Becker is your man!
