My story

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

Meet Garfield – A Handsome Gentleman Who Knows What He Likes
Garfield is a 4-year-old adult cat with classic orange-tabby charm and a calm, confident presence. He’s friendly and enjoys human company on his terms — the kind of cat who will happily keep you company, soak up attention, and then politely let you know when he’s had enough.
Garfield loves pets and affection, but he’s not a fan of belly rubs (a boundary he makes clear with dignity). Because of this, he’s best suited for a quiet, adult-only home where his cues will be respected and he can relax without the unpredictability of little hands.
He’s an easygoing guy who appreciates comfort, routine, and a cozy place to lounge. If you’re looking for a cat with personality, independence, and plenty of charm — without the chaos — Garfield could be the perfect companion.
