Why I need a new home

Human health issues (e.g. allergies, sickness)

My story

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


Derp is an older boy (probably around 11) but nobody ever told him that. He's super rambunctious and will make you question everything you knew about cats.

First and foremost, he is the Alpha cat. His name was Boss when I adopted him from a shelter a couple years ago. Regardless of who you feed first, Derp will be eating first. He's mostly obedient but he's also rebellious and when you aren't looking, he'll do things he knows he's not supposed to, like pushing Floof away from the food bowl he's eating out of.

This is the FRIENDLIEST cat you will ever meet, I promise you. He absolutely loves attention and will sneak into your lap while watching shows, even after you tried to shoo him away. And then, he'll purr the entire time.

He loves to lick like a dog. He doesn't understand that his tongue feels like sandpaper. You'll get used to it after a while. You're not going to be able to train that out of him. He loves it.

His tongue sticks out all the time because he has no front teeth.
