Story
Meet Mores, a senior cat with a heart full of sweetness and bravery. Though he may be shy at first, he warms up quickly with a little patience and the enticing sound of a jingle ball. His favourite hiding spot is under the bed, a cozy retreat where he feels safe and secure. Mores has a special affinity for chin scritches, his purring engine revving up at the slightest touch. His demeanor is calm, and he has a lot of love to give. Despite his senior status, Mores still has plenty of playful energy. Mores is not just a cat, he`s a companion. His soft purrs and gentle nudges are his way of saying he trusts you. He`s not just brave with people, but also with other cats. He doesn`t mind sharing his space and can often be found peacefully cohabitating with his feline friends. He`s looking for a forever home where he can share his golden years, providing comfort, companionship, and the softest purrs you`ve ever heard. Adopt Mores and add a touch of joy to your life.
