About Andy

Andy is a friendly, engaging cat with a magnetic personality. Almost four years old, he caught the attention of rescuers after turning up as a stray, and quickly proved he prefers people and company to the outdoor life. Andy will greet guests at the door and loves to be part of whatever is happening—he’s social, happy to be held, and never short on conversation. Crinkle balls, soft toys, and cozy perches top his list of favorite things. Andy is food motivated, enjoys both Purina Complete and Friskies, and has thrived even when placed on sensitive stomach food in the past. Andy is well-adjusted in a variety of homes: he’s comfortable around kids, other cats, and has handled himself well when exposed to dogs. He fits in just as easily in a quiet household as he does in a busier, multi-animal setting. Andy is current on his rabies and FVRCP vaccines, microchipped, and receives monthly flea prevention. If you want a companion who will welcome you home and talk your ear off after work, Andy is the one to meet. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
