If you are looking for a cat that can amaze you with his acrobatic talents and make you burst out in laughter with his antics, Benny says, "What are you waiting for?? Fill out an application for me now and let the fun begin!!" Benny loves any toy you dangle in front of him or toss across the room. Roll a ball, be it a sparkle ball, bouncy ball or ball with bells in it, across the room and watch the wild chase ensue as Benny bats it here, there, and everywhere in his quest for victory! Toss toy mice across the floor and the same type of reaction occurs - except if it is a large toy mouse, Benny will bunny kick it into submission upon capture! Dangle wands over his head and watch how high he jumps. Toss a toy, any toy, up to the tallest platform of a kitty condo, and be prepared to cringe and wince as Benny the contortionist twists his body into every shape unimaginable and crashes and bounces into anything in his way, all in order to capture whatever was tossed up there in the first place. As he returns to the floor with the captured toy, he'll look at you calmly and say, "That was fun! Let's do that again!" Meanwhile, you're wondering how it is possible he's still in one piece! Benny also enjoys playing with The Undercover Mouse toy, a battery powered wand that repeatedly swings back-and-forth underneath a fabric circle. Quick note to self: Don't leave a box of dry food and a roll of paper towels out overnight unattended...we made that mistake once. Benny overindulged and ate dry food to his heart's content, promptly threw it up, and being the considerate guy he is tried to cover up the mess with paper towels that he had shredded.
The great thing about Benny is as playful and active as he is, he throws the same amount of energy and determination into loving his people! Benny is very vocal (sometimes he makes a sound like a birdie chirp!) and will greet you before you even open the door to the room. He loves attention and is quite the cuddler. Benny enjoys being held and snuggled close. Benny is generous with his kitty kisses and is always happy to lounge in your lap for lots of petting and love for a long time in between play sessions. Would you believe he happily shares your lap with another cat at the same time? That's right! It isn't enough that Benny enjoys other kitties' companionship and loves to play with them, but he doesn't mind sharing his people with them as well!
When all is said and done, there is no doubt that Benny is one outstanding cat! The only thing he lacks is a loving family of his own. If you could use some more love and laughter in your home, please consider our Benny. He is incredible. To learn more - www.azrescue.org.
