Ben arrived at the centre after his owner sadly passed away.

Ben has found the adjustment difficult and prefers to keep himself tucked away from his human carers. To support Ben whilst he's in the cattery, we have started him on Gabapentin, to help ease some of his anxieties here. Since being on this medication, Ben has started to relax in the cattery and has started to explore his pen. He will take treats offered by staff, and occasionally enjoys small fuss around his head.

Upon a routine vet check, we discovered Ben to have Hyperthyroidism. He is receiving medication for this, which he takes well in his food. The centre will provide support towards the ongoing cost of his treatment.

Ben is looking for adopters who will give him all the time and space he needs to become comfortable in his new environment without the pressure of being affectionate. We hope Ben's affectionate side will show once he is relaxed in his new surroundings.

Do you think you can offer Ben the time and patience he needs in order for him to be comfortable?
