We had Smokey since 5 weeks old. He likes to know whats going on and gets into boxes and packages that have been opened. Smokey enjoys his naps, but when He's active he likes to walk around and be with the family. Smokey is a house cat. He will watch what's going on and sometimes follow you, sit and relax.

Story
Meet Spencer – The Ultimate Lap Cat Looking for His Forever Home   Spencer is a 3-year-old orange tabby with a calm soul and a heart full of love. He was recently surrendered by his previous owner after a new baby arrived—she worried he might try to snuggle too close, because Spencer is that much of a lap cat. While the change was tough, this sweet boy has taken it all in stride and is finally settling in, ready to start a new chapter with a family who truly understands him.   Spencer is the definition of chill. He’s laid-back, gentle, and once he feels safe and trusts you, he’ll be your shadow, your snuggle buddy, your best friend. If you’re looking for a cat who loves affection, quiet companionship, and cozy cuddle sessions, Spencer is your guy.   He’s not asking for much—just a soft spot to curl up, a lap to call his own, and a family who’ll love him as much as he’ll love them.   Is your home missing a mellow, loving companion? Spencer might just be the one you’ve been waiting for.   ##2374101##

Mr Miagi is a great cat. He is in door/outdoor but prefers indoor now that he is older. He is extremely lovable and is well known in our neighborhood as he visits and loves on everyone. He is so popular that he is on more than one neighbors Christmas list. We will miss him terribly and want him to find the perfect new home.
