My story

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

Meet Gandalf - The Distinguished Gentlecat with a Sweet Demeanor!

Gandalf is a distinguished grey and white juvenile kitten whose regal appearance is matched only by his sweet and gentle nature. With a calm demeanor and a love for observation, Gandalf is ready to become the beloved companion in your home.

Gandalf is sometimes playful and occasionally energetic, but he always maintains a calm and laid-back attitude. Rarely shy or fearful, he approaches new experiences with confidence, showcasing a gentle curiosity about the world around him.

A social butterfly, Gandalf loves the company of other cats and gets along well with dogs, making him a versatile companion for households with multiple pets. While he often chases toys along the floor, he's not as interested in toys that require pouncing, preferring instead to watch the world from the window.

Gandalf is social and friendly with everyone he meets, including children, adults, and even strangers. Although he tolerates being handled, it's not his favorite activity, as he values his independence and relaxation.

One of Gandalf's favorite spots is his cat window hammock, where he can sit and gaze out at the world with his distinguished grumpy eyebrows. When he's not observing, Gandalf spends his time snoozing, enjoying moments of peaceful relaxation.

If you're looking for a distinguished gentleman with a sweet demeanor, Gandalf is the perfect match. With his love for observation, friendly nature, and unique personality, he's sure to bring joy and companionship to your home. Don't miss the chance to welcome Gandalf into your life and experience the love and charm he has to offer!

Go meet their pets

Adoption events are held regularly in the community at Petco Winchester VA every other Saturday. Additional events are held at area festivals, wineries, breweries, and parks. Approved adopters can schedule a private meet and greet with their chosen pet. Same day adoptions are not done, so please apply in advance of any adoption event to give us time to check vet and personal references and to complete the video home visit.
