My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

ADOPTION PENDING
“Some people call me a space cowboy, some call me the gangster of love.” Too bad he’s not named Maurice cause he’s “lovey-dovey, lovey-dovey, lovey-dovey all the time”.

Meet Murphy, a 6-year-old neutered male who’s had a rough go through no fault of his own. His owners adopted two younger cats and they decided that Murph was someone to pick on. Sadly, he drew the short straw and lost his home. The poor boy also came to us with an untreated urinary tract infection, most likely from not wanting to get ambushed while in the litter box.

Big Murph is nothing short of a “human worshipper”. If you call his name, he comes running. If you offer a hand, he wants it. If you aren’t paying attention and he’s there, he’ll tell you. Basically, he’s one of the biggest love bugs you’ll ever meet and he never gets enough attention. You'll usually find him in our office lounging...usually upside down!

Now, he’s called Big Murph for a reason, which is kind of obvious. We have him on a diet of sorts and he’s on urinary care food as a preventative. Due to his experiences over the past few months Murph can get a little unnerved with loud sounds and sudden movements. He’s getting adjusted to all the sounds and hustle and bustle of our office and once he knows he’s safe well, did we say he’s a love bug?

Although he’s done well with our house cats, (who could care less that he’s in their space), we think that he would be happier being the center of attention a home without other cats. No one enjoys flashbacks…unless it’s great music.

Visit our Facebook page “Aardvark Rescue” if you’d like to see some videos of this handsome devil in action.

If you think you’d like to meet a boy who’s “going to show you a good time” we think Murphy is the man for the job. Please contact us if you think you might be his match.
