Dirty Dan's Story

Dirty Dan is not actually dirty.<br/>He is aesthetic.<br/>There is a difference.<br/><br/>Meet Dirty Dan -- a large, loaf-shaped gentleman with the build of a retired linebacker and the soul of a sleepy Victorian child. Dan earned his name because he occasionally looks like he just finished rebuilding a motorcycle engine... even when he has done nothing except nap aggressively for 6 hours.<br/><br/>Dan is a big boy. Not "oh he's fluffy" big.<br/>We're talking you will use two hands and reconsider your life choices big.<br/><br/>His hobbies include:<br/> * Sitting on important papers<br/> * Staring at walls like he's watching ghost television<br/> * Rolling over for belly rubs and then immediately regretting it<br/> * Judging you for eating snacks without sharing<br/><br/>Dirty Dan has the face of a wise old wizard who knows where you left your keys but refuses to tell you. He is equal parts cuddle monster and grumpy potato. He may look slightly scruffy at times, but that's just his signature style -- ruggedly handsome, like a trucker who writes poetry.<br/><br/>Personality traits:<br/> * 40% marshmallow<br/> * 40% grumble<br/> * 20% mysterious dust particle collector<br/><br/>He enjoys soft beds, sunny windows, and being told he is "a very large handsome baby," which he absolutely is. Dan would thrive in a home that appreciates a cat with presence -- the kind of cat who enters a room and immediately owns the couch.<br/><br/>If you're looking for a tiny dainty kitty... keep scrolling.<br/>If you're looking for a unit of a cat who will love you, supervise your daily activities, and possibly double as a weighted blanket, Dirty Dan is your guy.More information?
