Meet Ryder

Ryder is the boss - and he knows it. Other animals engage entirely on his terms, and he wouldn't have it any other way. While he may come across as territorial and a little standoffish at first, give him time, and he'll warm up beautifully, eventually reveling in the company of his fellow pets.

As a distinguished older gentleman, Ryder carries his years with grace, though those years do come with the occasional ache and pain, and possibly a touch of arthritis. He moves at his own pace now, and honestly, that just adds to his dignified charm. A little extra care and a cozy soft spot to curl up go a long way with this guy.

Don't let his independent streak fool you! Ryder is a deeply loyal companion. He'll follow his favorite person from room to room, and when it comes to scratches, pets, or the occasional unsolicited hug, he is fully on board. Fair warning: affection comes at a cost, and that cost is a generous cloud of black fur.

Bonus points: he accepts a harness without complaint and will absolutely purr about it.

Ryder isn't looking for chaos. He's looking for his person: someone patient, loving, and maybe willing to keep a lint roller handy.
