Locked Super friendly 10 year old, F3 Male in St. Louis, Missouri


 

In pains me to even post this message and it's taken me over four years to get to this point but I've sort of tried everything. Winston is a 10 year old beautiful F3 male. I bought him from the breeder when he was 1 yr old and have raised him ever since. Since moving into a new house he developed a spraying problem. As near as everyone (vets, behavioralists, communicators) can tell is it's caused by three things: 1) there are male cats outside and he's marking 2) he really wants/needs to be outside 3) he is understimulated.

Winston is probably the smartest and most determined cat I've ever owned. He's a little chatty in the morning but sleeps most of the day. Then he wakes up around 5 and is always on the move till bedtime. He's incredibly curious, friendly to everyone he meets (I've been hosting Airbnb for close to 10 years and he's friendly to all my guests, kids, etc.). I have an older siamese and they get along great - although he wants to play more than she does. He plays a little rough (hides and jumps on her but never bites or injurs) and I think he would do wonderful with a younger cat. BUT...he does NOT do well at all with dogs. He's very afraid of ALL dogs.

He's protective and sleeps at my feet every night. Sometimes he likes to crawl under the covers. He's loves someone to pat his butt...like every day for at least 5 minutes. lol Sometimes he likes to curl up in a chair with you but mostly he just visits and then goes about his business. And while he's very friendly he doesn't like to be picked up or restrained.? He free feeds Iams Adult dry food and never over eats. He doesn't really do treats but does like cheese and turkey. He uses the litter box well but does it cleaned once every day...or two.

He came from a very healthy breeder in Southern Missouri and I have all his vet records. He has never been ill and has no health problems. He has all his claws but doesn't ruin furniture. He does use a scratch pole occasionally but prefers to scratch on the straw door map.

Winston an absolutely amazing animal that I will be heartbroken to part with but he's just not comfortable in this house and needs more attention and space than I can offer.?

In my opinion, here's the best possible situation for Winston:

  1. A location where he can be outside and get more exercise. Possibly an apartment without access to outside male cats. If the latter, he will need lots of stimulation and play.
  2. A family (and even better a kid) that can give him even more attention (I live alone and travel).
  3. A family with a younger cat would be wonderful. He loves to play nice and also groom my older cat.
  4. A location with NO dogs.
