Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Mr. Willow 🖤🤍
Once upon a time, a very round, very frightened tuxedo feline was found roaming the streets. One look at the impressively large belly, the rescuer thought, “Oh my… she’s expecting!”
Plans were made. A nursery was mentally decorated. His foster waited patiently for kittens to arrive.
And waited.
Plot twist: there were no kittens. Because “Willow” was not, in fact, a pregnant lady. Once an actual exam was agreed upon, the truth was revealed — Mr. Willow is 100% boy. A big one in fact. At a solid 12.5 pounds, he wasn’t expecting babies… he was just expecting dinner.
This dashing tuxedo gentleman is equal parts sensitive soul and well-fed loaf. He can be a little scared at first — the world hasn’t always been kind to him — but once he feels safe, he blossoms into a quiet, loyal companion who will sit near you like a polite, slightly oversized shadow.
Mr. Willow might be startled by sudden noises, but is brave in the face of snack time. He prefers gentle humans who respect his space. Enjoys soft beds, calm environments, and being admired from a respectful distance
Mr. Willow is looking for a peaceful home where he can continue building his confidence, maintain his distinguished figure (we’re calling it “robust”), and finally retire from the dramatic rumor that he was about to give birth.
If you’re ready to open your heart to a sweet, very shy, delightfully chunky gentleman with a great backstory, Mr. Willow is ready to meet you.
No kittens included. Just one very good boy. 🖤
