My story

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

Hi I`m Baxter your next feline playmate. I`m pretty hard to forget once you get to know me, with my great personality and distinct tuxedo coat. I like to keep my distance at first while I size up the situation. When my curiosity finally gets the better of me I`ll start exploring my new territory. Come at me slow or I might run off and explore somewhere safer. Catch my eye with a wand toy though and I`ll be back in an instant for a fun round of play. Feet beware though, I do like to nibble on little piggies. Speaking of nibbling l, I love meal time and will be at your feet with my gentle meow if you open up some wet food or a Churu treat for me. I enjoy finding a nice spot to cuddle up next to you when I`m tired, and enjoy some scratches to help me sleep. Come meet with me soon.
