About Angus

Meet Angus, a lovable senior gentleman with a sweet, inquisitive face and a serious appreciation for petting. His soft black and white fur invites close cuddles, and he's eager to lean into attention while showing off his charming purr. Though Angus's life as a stray remains a mystery, his fondness for catnip and playful batting at a peacock feather hints at his gentle spirit. Angus needs to shed some weight to lower his risk for developing diabetes, so his new family should be ready to provide measured meals and support him in achieving a healthier weight.
