O'Malley
he lived in the forest and no one wanted him
O'Malley moved to Gut Aiderbichl Henndorf
He had been observed for some time and probably lived in the adjacent forest. An employee of Gut Aiderbichl was told by neighbors that there was an unneutered cat running around in the forest, which probably did not seem to belong to anyone. Unfortunately, O'Malley was also not chipped and did not seem to be missing anyone.
It is a one to two year old red and white male cat. Siblings or the cat mother were not to be discovered far and wide. Overall, O'Malley seems approachable despite his free life in the forest, he loves to cuddle and picks up a treat from the caretakers now and then.
O'Malley reorients
O'Malley is currently spending his young cat life in the cat living room of Henndorf. Since he had spent some time in the forest, the initial time in the cat living room was not so easy for him, but the cats who have been living there for a longer time are just introducing him to the customs of the Henndorf cat living room.
"O'Malley, don't be sad. Look, we're glad you're here and we'll help you settle in well. Our Bailey was also found outside of Aiderbichl Manor. On a rainy, very cold November day. He likes it very much with us!".
O'Malley is of course used to the forest. He already likes the cat enclosure with the fragrant grass, the shady and sunny spots. We also notice that he prefers to be in the outdoor enclosure than in the cat living room.
"The Saphira, she's nice. And the Bailey, the red cat. Bailey told me that he was found in the parking lot of Gut Aiderbichl, and that he was still a very small cat at that time. When I think about it, I don't really know how I got into the forest. I just caught mice, slept under the trees. At some point, people became aware of me and brought me here. Now I'm at Gut Aiderbichl. OK, it's good."
The animal keepers are trying to integrate O'Malley into the cat group. The young cat is still rather reserved and cautious. Since he got his own hut in the outdoor enclosure of the cat living room, he seems to literally blossom.
"I think that's great. When it gets "too crowded" for me in the cat living room, the caregivers have built a large and another small cat house for me in the outdoor cat enclosure. If I need rest and want to be alone, I stay in one of my little houses. Or I can lie down in the grass or under the beautiful butterfly tree and watch the butterflies. There's something about that. I always have enough food in the bowl or I catch a mouse in the enclosure. From that point of view, nobody interferes with me. It's pretty cool to be a cat at Gut Aiderbichl!".
O'Malley may have wanted to stay with his humans, but it looks like he was abandoned. He will need some more time, but the cat coexistence in the cat living room will become a good coexistence for O'Malley, too.
