Bombay and Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Arlington, Virginia

ISO loving home & feline friends
All about me: * I’m male about three years old & about 8.8 lbs.
* I’m a stunning black domestic shorthair with some
Bombay traits including short, jet-black, sheen fur,
amber eyes, muscular build and white in my ears.
* My foster mom says I’m a perfect cat!
* Once I settle in, I love and seek affection but I’m not
overbearing. I love pets & snuggling in a lap.
* I enjoy active play with other cats & people (let’s play
toy chase!) but am good at entertaining myself. I love
batting curly pipe cleaners & soft toys.
* I get along well with other cats & would REALLY like
to live in a home with feline friends. I love to play and
snuggle with friendly cats. If a cat doesn’t like me, I
brush it off - no fighting.
* I love to make biscuits on my person but I do not mind
getting my nails trimmed so I won't scratch.
* I have quite a range of vocalizations from soft meows
& contented sighs to happy trills & chirps.
* I’m not into being held long but am ok being picked up
* I am awesome with the litter box and using scratching
posts, and love to eat.
* I love watching birds and squirrels!(That’s me
standing up with my foster cat family.)
* I will take a little time to get used to a new family and
place. A safe spot to snuggle, gentle head rubs,
another friendly cat and maybe some tuna will help
me warm up. I love my bed and it comes with me!
