With a beautiful blue coat all over, Dusty is a looker. His coat has a sheen to it, making it look almost silver. He is a sweet nine-month-old boy, who is always looking for head scratches, and will bump you hand to get some. He does the same with other cats, gently headbutting them or rubbing against them, to get their attention. We believe it would be beneficial for Dusty to be adopted into a home with another easy going cat, or with one of the kittens in our rescue that he currently lives with. He would also do well as an only cat.
Prior to coming to our rescue in November, Dusty spent his entire life living outside. He, and many other kittens, lived on a block over from a person whom we work with, and who feeds the neighborhood strays. We offered to trap the kittens earlier in the year, but the people who live on that block refused to let us do it. So when Dusty and his sister showed up on our contact's deck for food, she made sure to befriend them, and once she was able to pet them, she captured them.
Since Dusty lived outside for most of his life, he may be a bit shy once in a new environment. The good thing is, he doesn't take long to learn to trust. As of now, Dusty loves to have his head and top of the body scratched, but is still unsure about the underside of it. We are working on getting him used to it so that he feels comfortable being picked up.
Dusty is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and dewormed. The results of his FIV/FeLV tests were negative. His adoption fee is $145. Dusty is being fostered in Tinley Park.
