About Benji

Meet Benjamin! This sweet boy found his way to us after a rough time, having been injured in an animal attack. Thankfully, he’s healed from surgery and is ready to find a loving home. Benjamin has a unique charm, thanks to a birth defect that gives him a distinctive snaggle tooth look. His playful spirit really shines through, and he never misses a chance to pounce on a toy or spread his collection across the room. Though he might be shy around new faces, once he warms up, he adores attention, often seeking out cuddles and conversation. Benjamin gets along well with other cats and would love to have a younger companion who matches his playful energy. Just a heads-up, he may not fully grasp the concept of personal space, so a patient and relaxed feline friend would be ideal. Benjamin is about 3-4 years old, neutered, and up to date on vaccinations. He is also FIV positive, but don’t let that deter you; it’s less scary than it sounds and easily manageable. He’s a lovable lap cat ready to fill your home with joy. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
