My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

It is miraculous that PENGUIN trusts people as fully and quickly as he does. He was born a feral. Found, then lost, then found again alongside a major highway intersection, 2 miles away from his wild home. Though he had every reason to be frightened out of his wits, he actually allowed himself to be picked up for a bowl of food. And ever since, he has proven an uncanny acceptance of human affection and a desire to belong to anyone who will give him the love he craves.

PENGUIN is indeed a very special fellow. Young at 2 or 3 years old, fit and densely muscular, not familiar with ordinary housecat play, but constantly on the lookout to headbutt a person with the strength of a bulldozer. He has adapted to the style of household living with the same smarts that kept him alive in the wilderness. He has no bad habits. Neat, fastidious, polite, responsive, eager to please. He will make a superb family pet. He will exceed every expectation to be affectionate and devoted to his people.
