Meet Duke — Your Big, Cuddly Lovebug Duke is a gentle giant with a heart as big as his paws. At a little over 7.5 years old, he’s perfectly content spending his days being held, purring up a storm, and soaking up all the affection you’re willing to give. This lovable big boy is currently on a diet, so he needs someone patient enough to ignore his clever attempts at convincing you he hasn’t been fed yet… or that he desperately needs a second breakfast. Spoiler: he’s a master of persuasion, but you can win this battle with a little consistency. Duke is happiest as the only pet in the home — other animals stress him out, so he’d thrive as your one-and-only companion. He’s a big fan of a cozy, oversized cat bed where he can curl up like the royalty he truly is. If you’re looking for a devoted, snuggly cat who will happily be your lap-warmer, Duke is ready to steal your heart (and maybe sneak a little extra love while you’re not looking). 🖤 Please be sure to read a cat's full bio before applying! We do our best to keep bios updated as we learn more about each cat or as circumstances change. The bio is the best place to find the most current and important information about their needs, personality, and ideal home. Thank you for your interest in adopting from Scruffy Paws Animal Rescue!
