- Gorgeous, friendly, cuddly guy who loves being around people
- Enjoys being petted and sitting next to you, and doesn't mind being picked up
- Likes toy balls, catnip toys and wand toys when he's feeling playful
- Loves looking outdoors from a window perch!
- Was stressed being around a young child in a previous home, and will likely do best in a calm, quiet, mature home
- Has done well with some dogs and not others
- May be happiest as the only cat in his new home
- May do best in a smaller home environment such as a studio or apartment
- Front declawed
- We suspect this cat has feline idiopathic cystitis (FIC), a condition that can occur in times of stress and may cause litterbox issues; we highly recommend this cat remain on fluoxetine, a prescription medication he is currently on that has helped with these issues (more info at ARL)
