TRISCUIT

HISTORY:  Triscuit was surrendered when the dog in the home became aggressive.
BEST IN HOME WITHOUT OTHER CATS

Like my namesake I am a full of energy and sometimes salty guy. I am so full of myself that I found it difficult to hold still for my photo shoot.  I almost turn myself inside out begging for some loving, virtually standing on my head and giving bodacious head bumps. As for the salty part, I am not a fan of other cats and can be downright cranky with them. As the center of one’s universe in a single cat (ME!) home I think I would be an entertaining, affectionate, and fun companion.

Note: Triscuit is one of THE most awesome cats at CFC. Steadily holding down a very revered post at The Scratching Post kitchen area, he’s a fast meeter and greeter and loves everyone he meets and ALMOST loves the dogs he meets more than the humans he meets. He’s not a huge fan of other cats. He needs to be watched when he is “on task” and working in the kitchen area to make sure he is behaving in an appropriate manner towards the other loose cats. His ideal home would be stocked with humans who LOVE an interactive kitty (head butts and purring and figure-eighting) and also pre-stocked with a dog or too and also kids. Some might say Triscuit is actually a dog wearing a sleek black cat suit!

Update Spring 2024: If Triscuit could speak, perhaps he might say, “Oh my gosh. Dogs. Dogs everywhere. Look at them all go by!” With Triscuit nicely settled into the senior room, he’s explored all corners of his new space and in the afternoon it’s a joy to see him on the outside catio area thrilling in the parade of dogs walking by as they are brought in for the night time hour. Dog after dog strolls by and as we know, Triscuit LOVES dogs. Should you miss seeing Mr Salty Face himself outside on the catio, likely he’s inside on a window ledge catching alternative outside action in that manner. He’s good for a couple head pets and then you can move to other kitties. LOL. We love having Triscuit under our care and with no emerging health issues, he’s got plenty more doggy parades to sit on the sidelines and enjoy. 

Update Winter 2024: I’ve moved. Joke on the street is that I’ve moved into the “official” CFC retirement wing where all the kitties are seniors or super seniors. As you know, I’ve been working at the Post kitchen for some time now. Finally, it was clear I was just tired of all the ruckus caused by all the new and very young kitties and asked to please be relocated. Amazingly, my request was processed very quickly and I’m now in the Senior Cat Room up by the main office. I am loving life here. I might be the most active in this group and it suits me just fine. I settled in super fast and felt right at home. I might have even let out an exhale of relief and satisfaction to have found such an amazing spot. When you’re next in the neighborhood, stop on by and be sure to look me up at my new address.

Update Fall 2023: Our handsome, salty character Triscuit is back to his “old” self. When we changed out his cat tree to a newer model a few months ago, our good friend was not happy. We sensed a lot of pouting during the day as he spent most of his time in his overnight condo. In general, he was just more grumpy. Luckily, Triscuit has now accepted this new tree and is at the top of it eagerly welcoming humans as they enter The Scratching Post. One of his newer, fave humans is our Maintenance Mgr BJ. The two of them greet each other like old school buddies which just warms our hearts. Triscuit, as a senior kitty, has slowed down which is expected however he’s still putting in a good, full day’s work. He just got a new Seresto collar so that will help keep fleas away from our good friend. He’s healthy and he’s still grooming and grooming himself to keep his coat as meticulously clean as possible. Our days are really not complete unless we can get our daily Triscuit fix!
