My story

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

Meet Eli, the 5-Year-Old Love Machine! 🐾

Eli isn’t just a cat—he’s a full-time affection specialist. This guy takes "lap cat" to a whole new level. If you’ve ever thought, "I wish someone would follow me around and smother me with love," then Eli is your dream come true!

What makes Eli purr-fect:

Professional Cuddle Consultant: Whether you’re sitting, standing, or lying down, Eli will find a way to snuggle in.
Affection Overload: He’s the kind of cat who will gently remind you that petting time is all the time.
Personal Space? What’s That? If Eli could wear you like a scarf, he totally would.
Eli’s love language is all of them—head bumps, purring, and constant companionship. He’s ready to be your shadow, your snuggle buddy, and your biggest fan.

If you’re looking for a cat who will love you more than food (well, almost), Eli is your guy. Come meet him now—this handsome lovebug can’t wait to meet you!
