About:
Ethan is a VERY handsome man. And boy oh boy does he know it! If you’re looking for a man in finance, trust fund, 6’5”, blue eyes… We can’t help you.
HOWEVER although Ethan may not work in finance, he is very good at adding… his toys to his water bowl instead of playing with them. He doesn’t have a trust fund, but his vet bills cost us the equivalent of one. He isn’t 6′ 5, but he is growing into a very big boy. He’s got the blue eyes covered though! The bluest of blue, deep and dreamy like a private lagoon in Fiji, but with a few more teeth and claws.
Ethan is a stereotypical hot boy. Treat em mean keep em keen is his main MO, with just enough chirpy banter, hilarity, and smooch to reel you back in every time he breaks your heart. Unlike your ex though, you CAN change him! He really DOES just need patience and unconditional love to heal his previous heartaches, and uncover the affectionate gentleman we know he can be.
Ethan is great at setting boundaries with people, but terrible at respecting them. He still isn’t keen on too much affection, but will allow a quick pat on the back or bum at meal times, or if he’s very relaxed on the couch. He loves letting you think you’re his new bestie by smooching all over your legs, and then bunny hopping away with a chirp when you try to pat him like it’s a game. He also loves to curl up on the couch next to you, or on the end of the bed on your legs, then reaching out to drag your hand (or toes!) towards him for a sniff and to hold. When he’s had enough, he whips out his signature move called the *whackwhackwhack* to give a gentle reminder that HE is the boss and not you. Because he is still learning that claws aren’t for friends, he may not be suited to families with young children.
Ethan is a cat’s cat, if your cat needs a buddy, Ethan is your guy. He LOVES having other feline friends around, and is good at respecting their boundaries. He’s very playful and inquisitive, and also loves a snuggle and shared grooming session so another cat who can match his best friend energy would be ideal.
While Ethan came into care very unwell and completely unsocialised, he has made incredible progress in the last few months. His foster Mum knows that there is a total lovebug just waiting to come out, and BFF will support with tips and tricks for a slow introduction to a new home and further socialisation. Ethan would be best in a cat savvy home that has the patience (and treat supply) to continue working with him a while longer to completely bring him out of his shell. Whoever takes a chance with Ethan is in for a treat, he’s funny, quirky, sometimes goes cross eyed when he’s sleepy, and is just a very good boy.
