My story

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

Like his namesake, Banksy is a bit of an enigma—independent, clever, and full of surprises. He might take a little time to warm up, but if you give him space and let him come to you, he’ll soon reveal his sweet and silly side.

Banksy is a cat tree connoisseur, a dedicated window watcher, and an avid hunter of wand toys (especially Da Bird—he lives for that thing). Once he’s comfortable, he turns into a goofy little mischief-maker who zooms through the house and explores every drawer, cabinet, and nook he can wiggle into.

He’s not a cuddler, but he’ll follow you from room to room and rub against your legs just to say hi. He prefers affection on his terms and appreciates someone who can read his body language. Quick hand movements or crowding his space? No thank you. But offer him treats and patience? You’ve got a friend for life.

Banksy is very food motivated and might try to trick you into second breakfast with those big eyes. Speaking of those eyes—when his pupils go full saucer, it’s your cue to slow things down.

If you’re looking for a fun, independent cat with tons of personality and a touch of mystery, Banksy might just be your perfect match.
