My personality

Why I need a new home

Fostered

My story

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


Benji was found in a parking lot at 2mo old. He was in a foster home for 4 months & I took over care 1/02/2026. He was born 6/2025. He is very sweet & kind. When he wants to play he puts up w/ my little dogs biting him and sometimes biting him a little too hard. He never growls or bites back. He simply walks away. He easily switches between rest & action; responds to sounds as he keeps a watchful eye on everyone in my home; always tuned in & ready to help; affectionate, confident. He doesn’t seem to be a Pack Leader. He is a good follower, but not a caboose.
Requires consistent training, socialization, mental/physical stimulation; doesn’t like being alone for extended periods of time; needs regular exercise/play. REALLY loves to chew up socks! At the vet he loves everyone -- he did NOT like the children outside of the office. He wants to play w/ the cat, too. Cat NOT having it!
