Hello there! My friends call me LT and I’m a handsome black & white longhair gentleman with the size and tufty ears of my Maine Coon cousins, just no fancy papers or attitude! You can tell by my tipped ear badge of courage that I started life in a feral colony. A nice woman took me and my colony into her home, and I lived with her for 8 years.

I am a very affectionate kitty who just wants a lap to snuggle into but unfortunately have never had a lap of my own. I can be shy at first but after just a few meets I will show you my loving side and will curl up in your lap for as long as you will let me, a true Snuggle Bunny.

I am loving and gregarious and I have a lot to say, but that is hard to see in the shelter, where I am shy around new people and loud noises. That means I start out as a Funny Valentine as I need time to get to know you before I give my heart away.

As much as I would love to leave with you upon first meeting, I would be grateful for your patience and willingness to become my friend before taking me home (remember, it may take me a few visits to feel safe sharing my room). This will help me blossom and transition to your home so that I can bond with you best and show you the snuggler I really am.

Being 10 years old doesn’t mean I don’t still like to play like a kitten! I love to chase my favorite furry mouse on a wand (“GoCat da rat”), and I will amaze you with my enthusiasm and skill.

Silver Vine (catnip alternative) is always a fun adventure to roll around in and I love my cat tree and tall sisal scratching post. Best of all, remember there is always snuggle time afterwards!

The keys to my heart are brushing, playtime & squeeze up treats. OH….and lap time! I will stay for hours on your lap when you brush me and encourage me by telling me how handsome and sweet I am. This will build my confidence and help me to adjust to our new life together.

I will do best in a home without other cats or dogs as your One and Only. A quiet home will be best for me. Ideally with 1 or two non-fur peeps and no young children. I can’t wait to find my purrfect family match and have the greatest chance of living my happiest life!

Because of my early life challenges, it does take time to get to know you and show my affectionate side. Please be patient with me, I promise I’m worth it!

I can be adopted for $60 which includes my neuter, vaccinations, microchips, food and litter starter kit, and a free well-kitty checkup to help you get started. BONUS: I also come with my tall cat tree, sisal stretching post, my favorite fountain, my large carrier where I prefer to eat and two large, high-sided litter boxes to help me settle in.

As a TLC kitty, I also come with a home installation, my favorite toys & bedding, 2 months of food/litter/treats, up to 1 year of professional behavioral counseling if needed.
