Hemingway
* Hemingway has found a new home. Yay! *
Back in 2018, we rescued a mom and kittens from Hamilton Animal Services.
Mama Zelda was found pregnant and dumped in a conservation area. She was brought to HAS, and on March 30th, she gave birth to three healthy babies! In her foster home, Zelda did a great job raising her babies and they were all adopted. Hemingway and Fitz were adopted together, and everything was fine up until recently, when Hemingway became increasingly aggressive towards Fitz. Eventually, the aggression became so bad, their bond was broken. Their adopters tried absolutely everything to try to re-bond the two, including vet visits and medication. They went above and beyond to try to help the brothers be friends again, but all their efforts were to no avail. The aggression is to the point that the two cats cannot be together any longer, and it’s best for both cats for Hemingway to find a new home.
Hemingway needs a home where there are no other animals. He’s a lovely boy when there are no other cats around. He has a condition that causes crust to build up around his eyes. His veterinarian said it could be an allergy, but the condition does not cause him any discomfort, and no medication or treatment is required. Hemingway will just need his humans to wipe away the crust with a warm cloth when it builds up.
Here’s a note from Hemingway’s current home:
“Hemy is a loving cat who can be very independent. He likes to sleep on the cat tree or the back of the couch. He can give you some sore shins from the head butts he likes to give while you are standing. He’s not the most snuggly cat and doesn’t enjoy being picked up, but gets into moods where he will curl up on you, especially if you have a blanket on. He likes toys on strings where he can run back and forth, and jump around. He also likes most treats we have given him, especially Temptations.”
