Henry's Cats - Louie

Louie is a handsome and athletic long haired gray tabby. He is probably a little over a year old and has white fluffy whisps all over, especially on his tail and ears. He is likely related to Cleio and Sister Mary Francesca. He struts and has a long and svelte physique, like a marathon runner. His spirit is young and he is a charmer! He was easily the roudiest and least comfortable when we trapped the cats, which put him in the 5 slated for death before Fenini's well timed call. We are so thankful for that kind of networking because it saved a beautiful animals from a horrifying and unjust end. Louie is going to be the kind of cat they write cartoons about, a sort of Marmaduke. He is playful and spends his free time in Kalli's basement tossing around a tiny stuffed peep (like the candy) and coyly avoiding any contact with her. Right now we think he will be making his home in the detail shop but with many more cats left to pull, we are still trying to make the most effective use of possible homes. Louie would be a great match for someone who already has a cat, he's very social with the others. I imagine he would be a great partner to exercise a pampered overweight house cat who could feed off of his exuberance. He has tremendous potential for adjustment and would likely do well in a home with other happy cats to set a good example. Like the others, stress has caused Louie to lose some fur so he could be even fluffier! He needs comfort, time, and lots of play. Like the others he still needs another vet evaluation before he can go home.
