About Murphy

Murphy is a charming 4-year-old male cat who might take a little time to warm up, but once he does, his sweet and loving nature shines through. With a striking orange and white coat that complements his long fur, he offers a delightful presence. Murphy thrives in a calm and quiet environment where he can bond with his new family at his own pace. Though he’s been around dogs and tends to ignore them, he prefers a home without children, as he tends to hide when feeling overwhelmed. He has a lovely bond with his siblings, Murray and Jezebel, making him a perfect addition to a ready-made feline family. Murphy is neutered, fully vaccinated, and house trained. This could be the start of something paw-some. Contact the foster mom at gillianlocker@outlook.com for more information.
