My story

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

Fritz is a handsome 12-year-old, part–Maine Coon gentleman with medium-long brown hair and a solid 15-lb presence. While he may look majestic and fluffy, Fritz is truly all heart. He’s affectionate and enjoys being close to his people, though he’s not a lap cat, his favorite place is simply nearby, soaking in human companionship.

Fritz strongly prefers people over other cats and would be happiest as the only feline in the home. He can coexist with another cat given time, but slow introductions are essential. It once took about six months for him to warm up to a feline companion. 

People are Fritz’s main source of enrichment. While he has toys he enjoys, his greatest stimulation comes from being around his humans, especially listening to them talk. He even seems to have a soft spot for male voices, possibly a nod to his first owner. Raised by humans from birth, Fritz has no hunting behaviors and is very people-oriented.

He is wary of unfamiliar dogs at first, though with proper introductions, he may adjust to them more easily than to other cats.

If you’re looking for a calm, devoted companion who wants to share space, conversation, and quiet moments with you, Fritz may be your perfect match.

Fritz is being cared for by a member of the community.  To arrange to meet this cat or find out more, please fill out our application here: https://www.thedancingcat.org/adopt-courtesy
