A future Hall of Famer, Dawkins is ready to be drafted to your family and eager to join the team! He's the total package, ranging from high energy player to a more low key cuddle machine, so he loves the balance of a quieter home with people who are around to keep him engaged while also providing all of the post-game massages to help him prepare for the next opponent (he's more than ready for you, Washington Spring Toys)!
Dawkins was surrendered back to PAWS due to the health of his owner, so after being adopted as a kitten this is all new and scary to him, but his desire for butt and chin scritches does often outweigh his anxious need to hide in the corner, so hopefully after a little time to adjust to a new setting he will start to shine and show off his more cuddly and affectionate nature. Dawkins is social with other cats, having lived with another one in his previous home (that cat wasn't bonded with him), so he could do well joining a home with another social kitty looking for a friend. He would prefer an adult-only home though, based on his history and nerves.
Age: ~4 years old
