Bailey

More about me

Get to know me…

Bailey came into our care following welfare concerns in his home.

Bailey understandably found his new environment overwhelming to begin with, often choosing to hide away and may be vocally defensive of his space. However, he has become more comfortable in his surroundings and is now often seen quietly relaxing on a soft blanket, watching the world go by.

Bailey isn’t ready for physical affection yet and will need calm, patient adopters where he can build confidence without any pressure with. While we haven’t yet seen his affectionate side, the other cats he arrived with have all grown in confidence and shown affection once settled, so we hope Bailey may follow in time. Any progress should be seen as a bonus rather than an expectation.

To help Bailey feel more relaxed during his stay, we’ve started him on Gabapentin which has been beneficial for his wellbeing. This medication would need to be continued in his new home (we hope once he becomes comfortable in his environment he can be weaned off).

Due to his limited experience outdoors, Bailey is looking for a quiet, more rural home where he can safely learn about the outside world in time and as his breed may be prone to certain health issues in the future Bailey’s new owners will need to be prepared to manage these with the help of a vet if they arise.

Do you have a quiet home and the patience to help our shy boy?
