Zizi
* Zizi found his forever home with amazing people! Yay! *
Zizi (Ziziphus jujuba) ended up at Hamilton Animal Services as a stray. Zizi had a severe infestation of ear mites when he arrived, so the shelter gave him medication to get rid if the mites and relieve the itching. No owner came forward to claim this shy guy, so we sprung him from the shelter when a foster home opened up.
Zizi was neutered on his rescue day, and he did great for the surgery. Knowing Zizi was a bit of a scardey cat, his foster family provided him lots of hiding spots to retreat to when he was feeling anxious.After a few days, Zizi came out of his shell to show his affectionate side. Now that he’s healed from his neuter, Zizi is ready for his forever home!
Here’s a note from his foster family:
“Ziziphus Jujuba was found as a stray and wasn’t claimed by anyone. Zizi was scooped by Ladybird and came into his foster home as a timid and scared little kitten. As he started to heal up from his neuter, he became more and more comfortable and has settled into his wonderful kitten self- cuddly, loving and playful.
He gives the happiest little meow when he’s about to get dinner and is delighted with cuddles and hanging out with his people and so many biiiig stretches. He still does love his bed that is tucked away from the chaos when he is feeling over whelmed, but spends his nights sleeping on the bed with the humans and dog in the home. Zizi is a 8-9 months old and has lots of kitten energy- parkouring off of humans in the middle of the night is one of his favourite pastimes.
Zizi is being fostered with a large older dog and isn’t too bothered with the senior pup. There’s another foster dog in the home who is delighted to chase Zizi and Zizi is delighted to sneak up to her to instigate some trouble. Needless to say, dogs in the house aren’t a problem at all.
Zizi would do great in any house. He is extremely gentle and cuddly and very very silly.”
