Story
Located in Des Moines, IA. This is Tyrion. 5 year old male. Incredibly affectionate and a perfect lap cat. He is neutered and up to date on shots and vaccines. He has lived with both cats and dogs and would do well on his own, or with a couple other friends. He was my mom's who unfortunately passed away last summer, and I sadly cannot keep him given my current living situation. Free to a loving home.

This handsome boy looks like he was taken straight from a 2000s emo music video with his slick black fur! If you like a guy to brood with in front of a window, preferably in the rain, then we have found your match. Blackie is one of our shyer kitties and would do best in a patient home, but if you want a cat who you can really help come into his own, this guy might be for you!
