My story

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

Hi, I'm Burton and I'm looking for my forever home. Things I like doing include eating, napping, playing with some toys, eating, head scratches, high places, bird watching, catnip...Did I mention eating? In fact, mealtimes are my favourite time of the day, followed closely by nap time!

Things I dislike include loud noises, dogs and empty bowls. I'm a very loyal pussy cat to my person and love to have petting and play time in the morning and later evening, broken up by a good long afternoon and early evening nap. There are some toys that I like but but I can't be fooled by a laser pen - chasing a light I can't catch...I don't think so. I am also quite the conversationalist and love to chatter away in the home, especially if I need to remind my human about my empty plate…or anything else that I need! I tend to be a night owl so it might be good if I have my own place to sleep.

I promise I'm very well house trained too, but I can sometimes be a bit shy with new people. I would like a home with no dogs and if there are children, they should be older. So my fellow foodies - could you be my forever human? I sure hope so!
