My story

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

True Love Awaits! Westley is a handsome long haired black void kitty with an abundance of charm and affection to offer. When you enter the room, he will enthusiastically greet you with the most adorable meows and chirps. He loves to share in conversation with his humans and will often answer if you ask him questions.

When Westley isn't showing off his conversational skills, he enjoys having his silky coat brushed, sitting in a sunny window admiring the outdoors, and hunting his wand toys. When playing, he will perform an impressive array of acrobatics to capture his "prey", and then proudly tote it around between his adorably large fangs.

At the end of the day, Westley wants nothing more than to snuggle up beside you and purr himself to sleep. He'll tuck you in with blanket biscuits and keep you warm on chilly nights.

Westley currently lives in his own room in his foster home, but has seen other cats through the screen door, and his foster believes he would do well sharing a home with other felines (with a proper slow introduction). He could also happily live as a solo kitty. It is unknown if Westley has ever met any dogs.

Westley does have diabetes, which means he will need to be fed a prescription diet and receive daily medication to keep him feeling his best. Westley would make a great companion to someone who likes to follow a routine to keep his meals and medication well timed.

Westley cannot wait to meet you and share all of his love! He also comes with a 3-month care package of all his medication!
