My story

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


Benedict is a dignified feline with a presence that commands attention. As an adult neutered male, he exudes an air of maturity and confidence without being imposing. With a sturdy build, Benedict is not one to be overlooked, yet he maintains a graceful poise that speaks volumes about his character.

In the company of other cats, Benedict truly shines. He finds comfort and solace in their presence, enjoying the quiet companionship they offer. While not particularly playful, Benedict's calm demeanor adds a sense of tranquility to any environment he inhabits.

At first glance, Benedict may appear a tad shy, but this is merely a reflection of his cautious nature. Once he becomes familiar with his surroundings, he begins to unwind, revealing a gentle and affectionate side that is truly endearing.

Benedict's preference for the indoor life stems from his uncertainty about the great outdoors. He senses the potential dangers that lurk beyond the safety of four walls and a roof, and he prefers the coziness and security that indoor living provides.

In terms of companionship, Benedict gravitates towards older children who understand the importance of respecting his boundaries. While he may not appreciate the tail pulling and dress-up sessions that younger children often indulge in, he welcomes the company of those who approach him with gentleness and respect.

To meet Benedict is to be greeted by a wise and seasoned soul. He invites visitors to join him in the cattery, where a rocking chair provides the perfect spot for getting acquainted. So come, sit a spell with Benedict, and discover the quiet charm of this remarkable feline companion.
