Hello, my name is Sammy. I am a purebred Ocicat and am told a very handsome boy! My past life wasn't the best, my owner moved and left me out in the barn, she stopped by every two weeks or so and threw food down. I am really thankful that she let The Kitten Nursery take me though so I could have a better life. But that doesn't bother me any more, I have moved forward, so let me tell you a little bit about myself.

My foster parents think that I am a really nice boy. You see, I am a little bit shy, I like to hide and come out when I am ready, but trust me, if you sit with me, I would be more than happy to come out to get cuddles. I am a really big love bug. I love to have my belly rubbed. I also really love catnip, don't worry, you don't have to try too hard to win me over.

Sometimes I go to the adoption events at Soldans in Okemos on Sunday from 12-3pm, unfortunately I just don't show well because I like to hide in my covered cat bed. But I promise you that I really am a sweet boy. I am super gentle, I would never hurt a fly.

I get along well with other cats, but I will need a docile cat. I have been around a lot of cats that like to beat me up and I have been told that I am too nice to fight back. I sort of just take it and that's not good because then I won't be happy… it's not fun to be beat up when you are such a sweet boy! I think I would like a home without kids, they make me a little nervous because they run around a lot and make a lot of noise. I will thrive in a family that will give me lots of time and attention. I just need someone understanding to give me a chance and let me tell you, you will NOT regret it.

When the room is quiet or it's just you and me, I will come out to get cuddles and explore. I really love to get cuddles and when we have bonded well, I would be more than happy to sit on your lap or be held. So what do you think? Do you think you have a quiet home to give a boy like me a chance? Eventually I could be a wonderful companion that will sit on the couch with you watching tv. I just need that right fit. Please consider giving me a chance, my foster parents think my adopters will be very lucky to have me.
