Story
Atlas is a loving, affectionate cat who truly just wants to be near his people. He’s the definition of a lap cat — happiest when he’s curled up close, purring away while you work, read, or relax. He thrives on attention and affection, and will gently remind you when it’s time for some cuddles. Atlas has been a beloved part of our family for years, but with a new baby and a busier household, he isn’t getting the calm attention he deserves. The extra activity and people coming and going have left him feeling a little stressed, and we want to find him a home where he can relax and be doted on again. He’s a wonderful companion for anyone who wants a loyal, gentle cat who loves to give and receive affection. Atlas would do best in a quieter home where he can be the center of attention. If you’re looking for a loving cat to keep you company and fill your home with purrs, Atlas will make your heart melt.
