Penguin's Story

Penguin is a 2‑year‑old tuxedo gentleman with a heart bigger than his tiny white paws. He may seem shy at first, but that’s just his thoughtful way of making sure you’re ready for the tidal wave of affection he’s about to unleash. Give him a few seconds of gentle pets and he blossoms into a rolling, purring cuddlebug. If you rest your hand beside him, he’ll tuck his head right into it like it’s exactly where he belongs.<br/><br/>Penguin hasn’t lived with other cats or dogs before, but he has shown no issues when seeing other cats. Dog testing is currently pending.<br/><br/>He’s looking for someone who appreciates a soft, sweet companion — and Penguin might just be the sweetest cat you’ll ever meet.
