Fig is slow to warm up to new people but once you gain his trust, he enjoys being pet. He will run over to you and flop onto his back to show you his belly, though chin scratches are by far his favourite. Fig enjoys spending his time sun bathing and watching the wildlife outside. When he’s not lounging he’s snuggling and playing with his foster siblings. Fig is startled by fast movements and loud noises and is best suited to a quiet and calm home that is adult-only or with older children with previous cat experience. He would love to be adopted with one of his foster siblings.

*Fig is best suited to an adult-only home or a home with teen-aged children who have previous experience with cats. He will need a quiet and calm environment with adopters who are willing to continue his socialization.

Fig is available for adoption on a foster-to-adopt basis due to ongoing health concerns. Please send an email to adopt@theaveryfoundation.ca to learn more.

The Avery Foundation is a foster-based rescue that helps stray cats and dogs in need in and around the Ottawa area. All our cats and dogs that are adopted out are spayed/neutered and have had their core vaccinations. Our adoption process involves an application; reference checks, interview, and home visit prior to placement. If you’re interested in adopting, please apply online at: https://www.theaveryfoundation.ca/adoption/adoption-application/cats/
