Lombard, IL
Nikki is an approximately 9 year old male, neutered, and front declawed. He is a handsome larger boy at 14 lbs but not overweight. He is very affectionate and loving with his humans. He likes to be pet (especially chin scratches) and will purr and sit on your lap or nearby couch cushion. He is also an expert napper! He does not like to be picked up but we are able to pick him up when needed. Nikki is a typical Bengal so he gets talkative when he is hungry or wants attention, and sometimes gets loud in the earlier morning. We just sleep with the bedroom door closed and he doesn't bother us at all. His favorite type of play is chasing the laser pointer.
Nikki would maybe do best as an only cat, but it's hard to know 100%. He is aggressive with one of our other older female cats, BUT he gets along great with our younger female kitten! In his previous home he did ok with their small dog as a companion and he gets along well with our teenage kids.
He generally has good litter box habits as long as his box is kept clean, and does best with a large open high sided litter box so he doesn't miss the box.
Nikki is currently eating Fancy Feast chicken pate and Instinct brand salmon dry food/kibble. He is not picky about kibble but would not taste any other wet food that we offered.
