Jeffrey is a good-natured handsome hunk of purrs looking for his forever home.
Hello, my name is Jeffrey. It rhymes with pet me, so please do! I was born with magic fur that feels like velour; the more you feel it the more I purr. My silky soft coat is the bomb, and it hardly sheds! It's possible I might be part Bombay, but I think I'm more like a cup of good coffee. Well, I'm not so bold, but I'm strong, dark, smooth, mellow, rich, balanced, and a little nutty.
Not only am I very handsome and sweet, I'm a smooth talker with a soft meow. My body is super muscular and sturdy, but big round eyes show my innocence. And my tail, shortened from an injury, is happy and expressive. I'm a good kitty that wants to be part of something bigger, like, maybe your family.
Right now, I just live with one person in a very quiet home. It's okay, but noise and activity don't bother me, and I think I might like to have a furry friend to wrestle with and keep me entertained. Maybe a bigger cat-friendly dog would work. A cat buddy could be fun, but my 14 pounds of solid muscle and social awkwardness might be too much. No matter what, being introduced slowly and properly would be important.
The same goes for kids. I'm good hearted and wouldn't hurt a fly. But I'm still learning that humans don't like play bites and claw paws. Sometimes I just don't know my own strength or instincts. For now, I really enjoy chasing a ribbon on a stick at least once or twice a day. I like the attention and exercise, and it's good for me.
What I really like is food! Ok, I love food! I'm always hungry, but I politely respect routine. My foster mom measures my food to keep me healthy. I do a happy dance, sport a happy tail, and always inspect the scoop or can to make sure it all goes in my bowl. It makes my foster mom laugh, every time. It's a good routine! The other thing I live for is good hands that touch, scratch, rub, massage me anywhere and everywhere...ears, head, neck, belly, feet, and back...I'm your guy!
Truth be told, it might require some patience at first for me to become your guy. Humans taught me early on that they can be scary. Like that good cup of coffee, I'm not bitter. However, I tend to be suspicious of everyone until I feel safe and they have fully earned my trust. (Hint, food is love)! With your consistent kindness, I am sure to blossom into a most loyal and loving companion, grateful to be part of your daily habit.
