Zeus - Loves People

**Enquire at adoptions@catpeople.org.au *** Please include your phone number so we can respond **

Meet Zeus, the charming grey tabby with white fur and big round eyes, who is ready to find his forever home! Zeus is a snuggly and social cat who loves to demand pats and attention. One of his unique traits is that he will ask for attention by extending his paw to touch you, and his owl-like kitty eyes are simply irresistible.

Zeus loves cuddling, playing with wand toys or small toys he can chase, and sleeping with you on the couch or bed. However, he doesn't like sudden noises or being chased. It's important to keep his nails trimmed, as he is a handsy boy, and this can cause drama if his claws are not maintained. Fortunately, Zeus is very tolerant of nail trims, so there are no excuses or exceptions with this - it's a relationship changer for him.

Zeus has been on a serious weight loss journey, he was morbidly obese. He is on a strict diet and play schedule to help bring him down to a healthy weight. This needs to be kept in mind in his new home - he needs two meals a day of Tilly wet food pouches (at Petstock) or Hills Science Diet Healthy Cuisine roasted chicken and rice medley and absolutely nothing else. Although he is cute chubby, he will gain weight quickly and be at risk of arthritis, pancreatitis, heart disease, diabetes, and other health issues. Continuing his diet and monitoring his weight will be an ongoing expectation for any adopter.

Zeus needs companions as he's incredibly needy and social, and will beg for attention all day from you if he doesn't have anyone to sleep with or play with in the day. Zeus is a lovely, cuddly boy who adores snuggling under the covers with you in bed or being next to you on the couch. He often taps you with an extended paw for attention, which is very cute! He can get excitable during affection or playtime and uses his paws frequently, so keeping his nails trimmed is non-negotiable. Zeus also requires daily brushing, which he absolutely loves!

Zeus is a quirky guy who will bring loads of personality into your home. He loves dogs and other cats, as long as they don't chase or bully him. He's a wonderful cat suited to many different homes and situations, as long as his carers are responsible, mindful, and make decisions based on his best health. He is not suited to being an only cat, needs companions for company, playtime and enrichment... this boy is very social!

If you're looking for a loving and affectionate companion who will bring joy and warmth to your home, Zeus is the perfect cat for you!

Zeus is an FIV+ but healthy cat who has been wormed, flea treated, vaccinated, desexed and microchipped (microchip #953010004572765, source #RE101165). He is available for adoption right now!
