Benji is a gentle cat who enjoys being close to his humans. He can have his moments, displaying a little attitude from time to time, but overall he's a real sweetheart. Although he can be picky about nutritious food, cat treats are a big hit with him. Benji behaves well during his clinic visits, though he does get a bit nervous during car rides. He's also playful and loves his toys. While he’s an adult at around 2.5 years old, we advise reaching out about him directly since he is not under the care of the Anderson Humane Center.
