About Merlin
Confident cat that will keep you entertained. Super comfortable around other cats, small kids and large dogs. Loves affection.
When Merlin first came to Ark, his family left him behind and he was confused and timid. Shy hiding away in the corner, Merlin has certainly shown us his true colours displaying his bold and vibrant personality.
Looking slightly “oriental” as a breed, he has a “dog” like personality that will love to follow you, flop on you for a pat. Loves being silly, bouncing around and playing games. He detests flies, cockroaches and would most likely be keen to find mice if any are around. If you want to laugh and embrace his playful nature he is the cat for you.
At first he may be shy but he will show confidence towards any cat or dog you introduce to him. The cats he has known at Ark don’t always love his energy but this cat deserves to be loved in the right home.
Did you know black cats are the least adopted cat? Please let’s not have Merlin add to the statistic, he’d love to find a place I can call forever home
