Oscar
was a busy, bossy cat when he was younger. Now he’s much more mellow and
into naps. He’s also bobtailed (got it caught in a door years ago). Very
observant, Oscar likes to snoop, and needs to know what’s going on at all
times. He also has the “zoomer gene”...our way of saying he is rather
compulsive about zooming out the door.
Although he shows an interest in toys, Oscar would much rather spend his time shadowing a human. He can be quite persistent. Although he’s not exactly cuddly, he is extremely companionable.
Oscar was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism in 2002 and takes a pill twice a day. He needs an interactive caregiver who will offer him lots of attention, yet let him do his own thing.
Although Oscar would enjoy (and be very good at) being an only cat, he has recently shown an avuncular interest in helping raise kittens.
