Here's what the humans have to say about me:
First things first, Prince is a big guy, and he is a big sweetie! Hide your wives because Prince has chiseled good looks, is built like a linebacker, and stays for breakfast. (It’s his favorite time of the day!) Prince is 8 years old and weighs in at a hefty 17 pounds of pure kitty cat, and while he can definitely stand to lose some weight, he also has the frame and build of a big tom cat, so achieving a healthy balance is his long-term goal. Like any high-class gentleman, Prince is always dressed to impress in his stylish orange tuxedo, and he’s always ready to cuddle with you all night long after he’s worked his charm. Prince is very affectionate after he gets to know and trust you, but like any member of royalty he comes with some strict personal boundary rules for petting his royal person, but as long as you follow the rules he’ll be purring like the small lion that he is. Ideally, Prince would prefer to be an only cat, and his adopter would be an experienced cat owner. He takes one dose of Gabapentin every morning just to take the edge off, and it’s easily sprinkled on his food, and he eats it with no questions and no fuss. Once you get into the flow with Prince, you’ll be living the highlife with him. He loves nothing more than keeping you company while you do work, watch TV, or listen to music. (His favorite album is Purple Rain, but he says Sign o’ the Times is pretty great too.) Prince is waiting for you to invite him to his new palace. Will you help a big guy find a big place in your heart?
