About Marvin

Adoption Fee: $10
Domestic Cat
Age: Senior
Sex: Male

I am wanting to re home my ten year old cat. He does great with other family members, including my husband, but has demonstrated aggression towards me during my first pregnancy. We have taken him to the vet and he is completely healthy so it seems like the changing dynamic in the household is stressful for him. I was not expecting him to react like this to my pregnancy because he is docile normally. He allows himself to be picked up and groomed easily. He likes to be in the same room as family but likes his space too. One of my favorite things that he does is ask for a treat to be placed at the corner of the kitchen table so he can knock it off. The vet always says he is one of the most well behaved cats he has ever seen. He is a big and long cat. I'm not kidding. He is double the normal cat size. I think the last time we weighed him he was just slightly under 20 pounds. He was overweight back in 2016 but is at a normal weight now according to our vet. Everyone always comments on how much of a beauty he is. We would like to see him go to a good home so we will be asking a few screening questions to determine if you are a good fit. I am really heartbroken that despite our best efforts, we have not been able to integrate him back into our home. Unfortunately, he lunges at me a lot and I can't always predict when he will do so. He is currently on a separate floor of the house but cries a lot because he wants to be downstairs interacting with the family. The situation is just not sustainable for us or him. I will not consider families with young children due to my experience with him during my pregnancy.
