Domestic Short-hair·7 years, 3 months·♂ Male
Marley is a lovely chap who loves his playtime almost as much as he loves a warm nap to snooze on once he's worn himself out! This handsome Domestic Short-hair has the sweetest high-pitched meow and an adorable white tip to his tail that's sure to melt your heart. Marley enjoys a fuss on his terms, but he can become easily overstimulated by lots of stroking, and has been known to swipe at feet when his boundaries aren't respected. He's also had one instance of biting his previous owner when stressed, which led to his return. But don't let that scare you—Marley is a wonderful cat with oodles of personality, and he's waiting for owners who understand his needs.
Marley's history includes soiling in a previous home, but we believe this was due to him having to share a litter tray with other cats, and the tray being outside. He has not soiled in the cattery or in the home he was returned from, so we're confident he won't repeat that behavior in a stable environment. With patience and the right setup, Marley will thrive.
Marley is looking for a home that can meet his specific needs. Here's who might be the perfect family:
Marley is a healthy 7-year-old male Domestic Short-hair. He has a history of overstimulation and stress-related behaviors, so a patient, understanding home is essential. If there are any concerns about his behavior, Battersea is on hand to provide advice and support.
