Personal AssistantYou're working on the computer? Let me press the keys. Reading the paper? I'll hold the pages down for you. Watching TV? I'll just plop in your lap so you can pet me. I love an orderly household, don't you? I'll help you with all your chores, and I'll help you relax when we're done. You'll wonder how you ever managed without me.

Story
Leader of the BandI'm a cat who does everything in a big way. I not only like to be in the middle of things-I like to lead the parade. I'm an adventurous cat, but I'll still make plenty of time to show you my affectionate side. I'm the demonstrative type, you might say. Want a cat who's brimming with confidence? That's me. Primary Color: Orange Tabby Weight: 9.8 Age: 2yrs 0mths 0wks

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Armani is sleek, suave, and laid-back. You'll love his gorgeous coat and his frequent purrs. He seems to be fine with other cats, but is a little perplexed when grumpy ones growl at him. Be sure to give him time to adapt if you have other cats. He also seems like he is fine on his own without any other cats in sight. He shows signs of wanting to test out lap cat life and has been a gentleman when picked up, even though it is clearly new to him. He's not a fan of having his paws played with, but we're working on desensitizing him in foster care. He also doesn't really have a good concept of what toys are for yet, but he's watching other cats and learning! Estimated DOB:   3/9/2025 Adoption fee: $70 (6% KY sales tax included)  We would love to hear from you! To inquire about this cat, please contact us via this site, visit our website sc4paws.org to see a full bio, or visit sc4paws.rescuegroups.org/forms/ to fill out our adoption application.
