About Petey
Petey is about four years old and wears a classic black and white tuxedo. He gets along with some cats, mostly females, but not with males, so he'll do best as the only pet. Petey enjoys attention on his own terms—he's friendly, likes to play, and will chase after a plush ball toy, but he doesn't want to be picked up or handled too much. Over-petting tends to overstimulate him, so he prefers brief, gentle interactions. He's independent and not the type to curl up in your lap, though he does enjoy surveying his space from a cat tower. Petey's ideal home has no small children who might try to pick him up. For someone familiar with cat personalities looking for a quirky, unique companion, Petey will suit you perfectly.
