About Flanders

Flanders is part of the Simpsons litter, sharing sibling ties with Smithers, Selma, and Mr. Burns. He’s a mature adult cat who prefers a calm and settled environment and has had a thorough upbringing under the care of the Worcester County Humane Society. Flanders has that classic curiosity of a domestic shorthair—a bit reserved at first, but once comfortable, he’ll open up for some neighborly attention. Patient adopters will find a steady companion in him. Bonus trivia: with a birthday on April 4th, Flanders is an Aries, so expect a streak of independence and a touch of stubbornness.
