A cat wandered onto someone's patio after years of living on the streets, not knowing that his life was about to change. MagnusChatonsOrphelinsMontrealLast summer, a large tomcat with a missing eye was spotted roaming the neighborhood, but whenever neighbors tried to help, he would vanish without a trace.They didn't see him all winter and feared he might not have survived. "When winter ended, he surprised everyone by showing up on a neighbor's patio, where a humane trap had been set up (to help the local strays)," Chatons Orphelins Montreal shared."All the stars were aligned for him that day." ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealDriven by hunger, the cat walked straight into the trap and devoured the food as the door shut behind him. After months of worry, the neighbors could finally breathe a sigh of relief, knowing he was safe. "This cat with enormous cheeks was named Magnus.""Thanks to his rescuers, he was finally able to receive the care he desperately needed." ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealAt eight years old, he underwent surgery to address his missing eye and began his healing journey in the comfort of a foster home. After spending most of his life braving the streets, it was no surprise that he tested positive for FIV. (FIV+ cats can live a long, healthy life with proper care.)At first, he was timid and guarded, not yet ready to trust humans, but with patience and love, he started to change. ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealThe foster family prepared a quiet, cozy nook where Magnus could relax and decompress. Once he settled in, they tried to pet him with a spatula. Even though he kept his head lowered and avoided eye contact, it was clear he didn't have a mean bone in his body."We could see the gentle side he kept hidden within." ChatonsOrphelinsMontreal"We started with positive reinforcement using treats."Gradually, his walls began to crumble, and he let his foster mom pet him with her own hand, revealing his gentle, sweet nature. After years of putting on a tough front to survive the treacherous streets, Magnus could finally be himself. ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealIn a matter of weeks, Magnus mustered his courage to explore the house, even trotting up to his foster mom for some affectionate scritches. Each day brought new progress, as he unveiled more of his endearing personality."He is very curious and observant, and he loves other cats. From the moment he arrived, we could tell he was eager to be their friend." ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealThough he still gets startled by sudden movements or loud noises, he's truly come out of his shell and drinks in every bit of affection he receives. "He loves it when we give his big cheeks and back a good scratch. He even arches his back toward us whenever he's in the mood for extra rubs.""Magnus loves his food. His hearty appetite has helped him build trust with us." He quickly caught on to the mealtime routine and is always the first to show up. ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealHe's enamored with other cats, filling the house with cheerful chirps as he races around with them. "He even tries to rub his head against them in a cuddly way. He wants to be everyone's friend.""Magnus might give a strong first impression with his sturdy build and one missing eye. He resembles a raccoon when he moves around, but spend just a few minutes with him and you'll see he's a total teddy bear at heart." ChatonsOrphelinsMontreal"Magnus is a cat who's still learning to live with humans, and he makes progress every day. He is lucky to have been rescued from the wild. He deserves the best after his tough life outside."These days, he likes to perch by the window, keeping his keen eye on the neighbors and critters outside, all while enjoying the comfort of his foster home.
