My story

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

Maurice is an adult, neutered male cat, probably born in 2017.  He's a really nice, easy going, sturdy, squeezable chonk of cat.  He likes to hang out with other male cats and friendly females.  He's intimidated by strong female cats, but is very respectful.  Maurice is the doorman of his room - he loves to meet people the minute they walk in and he stays underfoot until he gets some love.  He will rub and wind around ankles and he never misses a chance to hop on a bench with a visitor.  He gets along with the other cats in his room, but his laser focus is on humans.  He can be scooped up and held over your shoulder, which is purrfect hugging position (did we mention how squishy he is?). He's got no problem sharing attention, which is nice and he'll sneak in a few quick ear licks when his buddies are distracted.  Maurice wants to love everyone, but he is very scared of dogs, so needs to be in a dog-free home.    Maurice doesn't mind taking a break at the shelter, but his career is definitely as a house cat and he's excited to interview with you.

Update:  Maurice has tried a couple of trial homes and we have decided that as well as he gets along with cats here, he wants to be an only cat in a home.
