Rescue:
Pet Patrol’s sanctuary is located in a rural area, surrounded by farms and people who do
things the traditional way. Properties are fields apart and any cats that migrate from farm to
farm, have a fair distance to go. One day we received a call, it was early in the summer, from
a farm family who had a good sized barn with cows, horses of course, chickens and a number
of cats. They mentioned that they had a really nice male cat who needed to be placed because ‘they just had too many’. At that time of year, kitten season, Pet Patrol was absolutely
overflowing with cats and kittens and not a spare foster home to place more into. Because
everything had opened up around the world people were traveling and that reduced the
number of people able to adopt or to foster. We had a full house from June through to September. Finally the ‘one male cat’, Isaac and two other female cats came into our care as soon as
we had room, and at that time they mentioned Izaiah. It was a full two weeks before we had
space for him but he is just a sweet as the other three and all have done well in our care.
Personality:
Izaiah is a great cat and so is his brother Izzac. They have adapted to living indoors beautifully
and are loving lounging around on the beds and watching out the windows. Izaiah has appreciated being indoors especially on a cold and rainy fall day: there’s nothing like being inside,
warm and well-fed. Izaiah likes to be pet and cuddled and is used to being around children
who handled him nicely and he doesn’t mind being picked up and cuddled at all. In fact, he
loves it! Toys have been a wonderful new discovery for him, and he’s having great fun learning
how a ball bounces, playing with the mysterious laser pen light and catnip toys of any kind are
just the best. Izaiah is ready to be adopted into his forever home. One that will welcome him
into the family and keep him safely indoors.
