About Benedict (Benny)
Meet Benedict - lovingly known as Benny 🖤🤍
A big tuxedo boy with an even bigger heart.
Benny is the kind of cat who makes a house feel like home. He’s sweet, gentle, and a little bit goofy - and he genuinely wants everyone around him to be happy. He doesn’t always realise how big he is, so he can often be found happily joining in with the kittens like he’s one of them… playing, pottering around, and lovingly grooming his tiny foster brothers and sisters.
At night, Benny’s favourite place is your bed. Bonus points if a furry friend wants to snuggle up too - Benny loves company.
He’s friendly with cats and dogs, and he enjoys the company of his humans although he can be cautious with new people. When new foster cats enter his foster home feeling unsure Benny will stroll over, rub up against them, and quietly let them know they’re safe. His soft heart sometimes gets bruised when others don’t return the love (and he can be a bit of a target for bossy cats), so he’d thrive in a home with kind, relaxed pets who won’t push him around.
✨ Benny would suit most homes, but he truly needs one thing to thrive: a friendly resident kitty - ideally a cat who enjoys affection, gentle play, and companionship. Benny just wants a buddy to love and be loved by.
Benny has the cutest squeaky little meow, a serious appreciation for food, and an adorable quirk: he is obsessed with his foster sister’s Lion Jellycat… he steals it, cuddles it, and grooms it like it’s his prized possession. 🦁
Call his name and he comes running - truly delighted - then settles beside you, patiently waiting for cuddles and belly rubs. He loves pats, enjoys being picked up, and will happily sit on your lap.
If you’re looking for a cat who will love you openly, try his best with every animal he meets, and bring gentle joy into your everyday life… Benny is your boy. 💛
