Bend it like…Bengal?
Meet Beckham, a very handsome and charming superstar who’s ready to be your very own MVP. Beckham arrived with a team of five, all-star, Bengal cats who were surrendered due to a change in their owner’s living arrangement.
About Beckham
- In foster
- Beckham is a big, friendly snuggle bug who accepts pets by hand and will lean in for more affection, rubbing his head on human hands and legs. He’s been described as “scoopable” and “foldable” and loves to be groomed.
- This bouncy boy loves to play! His foster mom has a mountain of toys for him, and he plays with them all. His favourite is chasing toy balls (of course!), playing with the feather wand toy and his big, red slinky. Oh, and his shoe boxes, more balls, some socks, his mousey, the donut, and his cat tree. He will definitely keep you laughing with all his silliness!
- Beckham is a social eater. Family dinners, please! This charming fellow loves to have company while enjoying his meals. For that matter, Beckham will sleep and nap with his humans, whenever allowed.
- Fun fact: Beckham’s coat is so stunning that he actually appears to shimmer when the sunlight hits him just right. His foster mom speculates that he might be part-Siamese (if you please) due to the shape of his ears, but without pedigree we can’t be sure. We can certify that he’s 100% handsome.
- He does tend to door dash, but can easily be picked up and brought back. Beckham seems to enjoy being held, so maybe that’s his motivation?
- He has a tendency to eat dirt, so potted plants beware! This is an unexpected habit from such a fancy-looking gentleman.
- Beckham, true to his breed, will happily have a “conversation” with his humans, meowing in response when spoken to. Perhaps he’s giving us a play-by-play of his day?
- Beckham is neutered, microchipped, dewormed, flea-treated, SNAP-tested for FIV/FeLV, and is up to date on core vaccinations.
Beckham’s Ideal Home
- Beckham must be the only cat in the home.
- Bengals are a highly social breed and Beckham would be happiest in a household where there are multiple family members with whom he can interact and play. Case in point: when his foster family watches TV, he’s right there snuggled up on the couch.
- Beckham gets along well with the school-aged children he’s met and lived with. He’s been known to “supervise” craft time, and of course he’s always ready to pile on for a nap.
- His compatibility with dogs is unknown.
Are you ready to bring home this all-star? Like his famous namesake, he owns the podium and will prove it every day. We’re cheering for him to find his perfect home!
