About Tarzan ⭐️ Off

Tarzan is a brown tabby who spent months living outside before settling into indoor life. He’s about five years old and weighs 15 lbs. Tarzan is adaptable and quick to greet people, always chirping with a little conversation and wanting to be included in what’s happening. He’ll eagerly “help” you around the house and can be enticed to learn new tricks, especially if food is involved. Tarzan thrives when he’s on a routine of feeding and play, and he just might surprise you with his potential for clicker training. While friendly, Tarzan is sensitive to touch—he prefers short petting sessions and makes it clear when he’s finished. He isn’t the cat who wants to be fussed over or carried, but he will happily share your couch on a quiet evening. Tarzan gets along well with calm, cat-savvy dogs, and does best as the only cat in the home. For families, calm older children work well; little ones or high energy situations are not a fit. He’s entirely litter box trained. If you’re looking for a talkative, interactive companion with an independent streak, Tarzan’s your guy. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
