Meet Finnegan

Finnegan is a 3-year-old cuddly prince looking for his forever home! This handsome stripey guy is very particular and princely. He likes to be pampered. If you do not clean his litter box daily, he will remind you. (He prefers an open litter box.) Finnegan LOVES cuddles and if you sit/lie down, he will be on top of you purring away. He must go to someone who will let him sleep on their bed, as that is his favorite place to be at night. A talented chef, this boy is skilled at making air biscuits and will only drink water that he scoops from his paws. Finnegan can occasionally be nippy when he is overstimulated; he needs to go to an experienced cat owner who can gently and kindly help him redirect his energy. Pro tip: Finnegan loves listening to Orville Peck; whenever he is being angsty, playing Orville will make him relax, purr, and lie down. He does not like full-body pets, but he is very fond of like light head scratchies. Rule number one is do not touch the belly! Finnegan would cuddle with his people all day if he could! He also likes people-watching from the window and loves wet food. During his zoomies he enjoys a laser pointer, cat dancer, or any toy with catnip. He’s a chatty guy and lets you know when it’s breakfast time. Midday, he tries to lure us into naps and is always successful. He'll sit on any available lap and will occasionally chase a toy. At night, his zoomies kick in and he sprints and skids around the room. Once you get into bed, he is there immediately, ready for (you guessed it!) more cuddles. This lovely boy lives in a large room in a house. We have several housemates whom he has met. He is social and loves to meet new people, but can also get overexcited if he encounters too many people in a short span of time. Finnegan's ideal home has 1-3 people and is in a quiet area (not near a highway—the sound freaks him out). He would thrive in a small, cozy home vs a large house. T Finnegan is a not a fan of other cats or children, so he should not go to a home with anyone who has kids or plans to have them in the next 15+ years. This guy likes to always be the center of attention. We think he may get along with a relaxed, older, cat-friendly dog. This loving but gentle soul most go to an experienced cat owner. He has some trauma due to being left in a carrier outside for days and gets anxious when left alone for long periods of time. His body language is different than other cats and it takes getting used to. He takes about 2-4 weeks to become comfortable and trust people; you'll know he is comfortable when the zoomies kick in. He good-naturedly responds to Finnegan, Finn, Finnypoo, and Finnylicious. This boy has been through a lot and only wants to feel safe and loved! Can you help make that happen, and receive so many cuddles in return? There is no guarantee of age and breed as a rescue animal's history is unknown. All ages and breeds are best estimate.
