Black cats match any decor
HI! My name is Jacob! I
am very affectionate, sweet, and friendly! I was
brought to Last Hope when I was just 6 weeks
old. I was in a cage at one of Last Hope’s
stores for quite a while. Eventually, I was made
a “free roamer,” at the cat adoption center. I
get along well with other cats. I am not an
alpha cat—more of a lover than fighter! I am
frightened in the cage as the store can be noisy
and overwhelming at times. I would love to be
loved and appreciated for who I am—a big mush! I
am very social and gentle. I think I am quite
adorable and hope you do too.
PLEASE consider me for
adoption! I am sure to be grateful, loyal, and
loving to you! Thank you!
JACOB

HOW TO PROPERLY
INTRODUCE A NEW CAT OR KITTEN
THE KEY TO SUCCESS IS TO GO SLOWLY !!!
Keep in mind that the resident cat most likely will view the new
cat as an intruder.
It may take a month or more before the new cat is accepted by
the resident.
Keep the new cat confined to a room with his own.
Provide food, water
bowl, litter box, toys and bed or sleeping spot.
Allow the resident cat full run of the house except for this
room.
Let them sniff under the door at each other even if he hisses or
growls etc.
Give something the new cat has slept on to the resident cat and
vice versa everyday.
After several days to a week, depending on the reaction of the
resident cat to the newcomer, let the resident see the new cat
by mean of a screen across the doorway or while you are closely
supervising the interaction. Give them short periods of contact,
slowly increasing the time as they adapt to each other as judged
by the various signs of aggression such as hissing, growling,
etc.
Give more attention to the resident cat than the newcomer
especially in the presence of the new one
until the resident cat
accepts the newer one completely.
Do not permit actual physical contact until both your resident
and new cat seem comfortable with each other.
Do not leave them unsupervised until certain no physical
aggression will take place.
Never permit any fighting whatsoever!
Avoid future conflicts after the introduction period by not
letting the new addition take over the resident's favorite
snoozing spots or toys. Keep feeding/water bowls & litter pans
separate until resident cat shows complete acceptance of
newcomer.
Remember to:
1. Always make sure the resident cat is healthy & current on
vaccinations.
2. Be sure new cat has been tested for Feline Leukemia and Aids before bringing it into the household.
3. ALWAYS adopt from Last Hope!
