Indy

Indy is a sweet and super affectionate boy. He was born around Nov 2019. So he is about 10 months now. He is a gorgeous long and sleek boy. We just got him so once we know a bit more about his personality we will update ! but We do think he would need to go to a home without kids as he does get over stimulated and can do that nipping love bite thing .. but it is getting better every day with that as well

here is what his foster mom says:

Here’s the write-up. Feel free to pick-n-choose and/or fix it or completely re-do 🙂 I attached a couple of photos of Indy. I’ll try to get nicer ones. He doesn’t respond to his name at all so it’ll be easy for the adopters to change. lol

Indy is a very curious, agile cat who thankfully has an off switch. During the day, he sleeps in his spot, which is on a box in the closet (he has more comfortable places, but that’s where he likes to sleep). When he surfaces, he is a cuddle bug that is attached to my hip, always trying to get more scratches. He loves nails and he loves head and shoulder massages. Wherever there’s a lap to be on, he’s with you. That includes the bathroom. At night, he’ll plop himself down against you or splayed across you. Many times, he’ll have his head against mine. While he often puts himself in a way that makes you think he wants his belly pet, he does not under any circumstances appreciate this and will warn you by pushing away your hand with his back leg. He is otherwise an incredibly friendly cat since he was attached at the hip from the start. He doesn’t wake me up for food in the morning.

As he is very curious and un-phased by unfamiliar sounds, I think he would do well with another cat or dog. He loves to jump and learned how to open sliding doors. He is learning not to be on kitchen counters. When I’m eating, he does respect my space if I hold up an open hand to politely stop him a couple times. He also has a very strong tail and is blissfully unaware of it. I don’t think he’d do well with young kids that don’t respect/understand boundaries, since his belly is a hard no and will result in a bite if not paying attention to his signal

Broken Promises Rescue is a volunteer run, not-for-profit, animal rescue organization located in the lower Vancouver Island. We are a group of long time rescuers that have come together to focus on improving the lives of unwanted, neglected and orphaned animals on Vancouver Island (as well as remote communities and other areas of B.C. if our resources allow us to.) Currently we are seeing many pets overlooked in the shelter system because they have less than desirable qualities. They may have medical or behavioral issues or they may simply be the wrong color, age or breed. At Broken Promise Rescue we believe all animals deserve to experience a life without pain, loneliness or hunger and want them to know what it feels like to be loved and cherished, despite appearance, age or medical condition. We are also dedicated to public education and raising awareness to help end the ongoing abuse, neglect and suffering. Educating children and adults about the responsibilities of animal ownership will go a long way in influencing public opinion on proper animal care, and help mold a more compassionate future. No animal should suffer at the hands of ignorance.
