Hey there! I'm Ziggy, and I'm basically the kid who never wants the playground fun to end. You know that one boy in class who's always got a smudge of dirt on his nose but a giant grin on his face? That's me. I'm a "buff" tabby, which is just a fancy way of saying I've got a coat the color of a perfect toasted marshmallow. I'm a young, sturdy guy with plenty of energy for "recess" (feather wand time is my favorite subject). But despite my sporty build, I'm actually the biggest mush you'll ever meet. I have these huge, soulful eyes--the volunteers say they look like they're filled with a million "thank yous" and a whole lot of love. When I look at you, I'm not just seeing a human; I'm seeing my best friend in the whole world! I'm a firm believer that there is no such thing as "too many" chin scratches. In fact, if you get distracted or try to walk away before I'm finished, I'll gently reach out a soft paw and give your hand a little tap. It's my way of saying: "Hey, Coach! Get back in the game! We were just getting to the good part behind my ears!" Think you can keep up with a guy like me? Come say hi! I promise I've already got a spot saved for you on the couch!________________________________________________ If you would like to meet one of our adoptables or learn more about them, please submit an application at https://animalrescueneworleans.org/adoptfoster/. **Note: Our shelter is open by scheduled appointment only after your application is approved.
