My story

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

Meet Gatsby!

A distinguished nine-year-old Domestic Short Hair from Burlingame, CA, whose dapper tuxedo coat is as charming as his personality. This indoor-only gentleman may start off a bit shy, but once he feels at home, Gatsby will transform into your ultimate cuddle buddy! With a penchant for exploring every nook and cranny, Gatsby is the kind of cat who will find all the best lounging spots in your home, and when he’s not napping, he’ll be keeping a watchful eye from his favorite perch on a tall cat tree. This big biscuit maker has a delightful habit of finding the softest, squishiest pillows or blankets to knead lovingly by your side!

Gatsby is a cat who knows what he likes: a good laser chase, the thrill of a cat toy, and the simple joy of being brushed. His playful spirit is perfectly balanced with his love for affection, making him the ideal companion for those cozy evenings on the couch. He’s a true lap cat at heart, often making his way to your side as soon as you settle in, purring contentedly as he snuggles close! And when it comes to showing love, Gatsby doesn’t hold back—he’s known for his intense cuddles and will gladly soak up all the attention you can give.

Though Gatsby is friendly with dogs, he appreciates a slow introduction to ensure a smooth and stress-free relationship. While he isn’t particularly fond of other cats outside of his household, Gatsby shares a special bond with his feline companion, June. They’ve grown up together and would love to continue their journey side by side, though Gatsby is also ready to embrace a new chapter if adopted separately.

Gatsby is not just another pretty face; he’s neutered, microchipped, and fully litter-trained, making him a breeze to care for. His health is in top shape, and he’s ready to bring his quirky charm and loving personality to a new home that will shower him with the attention he thrives on.

Could your home be the one where Gatsby finds his new loving sanctuary? If you’re looking for a sweet, easy-going cat who will fill your life with purrs and warmth, Gatsby might just be the perfect addition to your family! Are you ready to meet your new best friend?
