Grover

Description

Hi, I’m Grover — Professional Snuggler & Certified Purr Machine Hi! I’m Grover, and snuggling is my full-time job. If you let me, I would happily sit on your chest right below your chin all day long—it’s my favorite place to be. I love scratches of all kinds, and my purr motor starts the second you even look at me. Seriously. Eye contact = purring. When I’m not busy cuddling, I enjoy playing with toys and relaxing to nature sounds. I’ve traveled up north already, so car rides don’t scare me one bit. I’m also a big fan of the great outdoors… from inside. Bird and squirrel videos on YouTube? Absolute cinema. I’ll sit and watch them like I’m studying wildlife. I’ll be honest—when I get overstimulated, I can get a little mouthy and may give a gentle bite. I never break skin, and my people have been working with me on this since day one, but it’s something my future family should know. Because of that, I’d do best in a home without young kids. I do great with adults and older kids, but I’m not a fan of other cats or dogs. I’d be happiest living with just my siblings—or no other pets at all. Most importantly, my brother Grafton and I are very bonded, and we truly should be adopted together. We’re a package deal and balance each other perfectly. If you’re looking for a deeply affectionate, chest-snuggling, nonstop-purring companion (or two!), I might just be the guy for you. Grover would love to be adopted with one or both of his siblings, but if he is not able to, he would do best with another playful cat in the home. Grover is from a stray surrender with 2 siblings. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.   Want to adopt a kitten? We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats’ emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of “Single Kitten Syndrome” (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten’s most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.
