Meet Finn McCool,

Finn McCool has gotten his name from a Giant of Irish folklore known for his strength and resilience.   Finn’s journey at Freshfields has been the most dramatic of all the rescue cats at Freshfields in the last few years.  From an absolute harrowing rescue, this poor guy was absolutely terrified of people and most notably hands.  However through lots of love and patience Finn has gone from a very traumatised cat who was in constant fear, to a very purry smush who has grown to trust people and loves giving headbumps and having strokes.  For a long time the sheer sight of a hand near him would cause Finn to violently attack but lately Finn seems to have beaten his fear of being touched and conquered the trauma of abuse and neglect he has endured.

Finn was the victim of severe neglect and very probable serious abuse.  When he was rescued by a member of the Freshfields Cattery Team you could see where he had been desperately trying to escape the appalling conditions he was imprisoned in (a picture is provided of this).  Finn was discovered in a property by a landlord after the tenant vacated the premises.  Sadly the tenant did not inform the landlord there was an animal in the property so Finn went at least 2 weeks with no access to food or water.

Finn McCool will need someone who is experienced with cats and ideally a quiet home.  Finn will need a special someone who will give this tortured soul a quiet loving home.

If you feel you have the experience and compassion to restore Finn McCools faith in humanity.  Please do fill out an application form and email it to us at cattery@freshfields.org.uk
