Critter Details

See Cookie’s HomepageGo to our official websiteYou can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Estimated to be around 1 year of age, Cookie is an extremely playful and curious kitty.  Although I have not been able to cat or dog-test him, I think Cookie would benefit greatly from having a kitty sibling to teach him how to interact with humans and learn that touch, brushing and petting are pretty awesome.  Currently he will allow you to brush and pet him only while he is eating (he is VERY food motivated).   He is very expressive and shows how glad he is to see you when you get home and will happily show you where his food bowl is….several times! In Cookie's opinion everything has the potential to be a toy and he particularly loves lures.  He plays tug of war just like a dog which is fun to watch.  He will rub against me while playing and loses himself in the game.  This is why I think he would do well with another cat.  He is all in when playing. Cookie uses only his scratching post and never on furniture.  He loves to spend the day watching out the window.  He is not very shy even if he doesn’t seem to understand that he can get on the couch with me at the same time yet.   But I think that with a cat companion he will soon learn the benefits of having his own human companion beyond them being a food source. Cookie LOVES to play-click here to watch him in action. Check out this video and this one of him having the best time!  Cookie is from a local impound.
