About Vinnie
Hi my name is Vinnie 🤍🖤
I am an older refined gentleman looking for a quiet home to live out my twilight years. I am happy for nice gentle pats around my head, chin and cheeks. However, I am not a fan of pats from my lower back downwards as these make me feel uncomfortable. I also don't like being picked up as I prefer my four paws firmly on the ground. I love a nice warm comfy bed to lounge around in whilst I watch the world go by. I am not fussy with my food, just something nice and tasty is all that I ask for.
Due to my age and colouring, the indoor lifestyle is what I need as this is where I feel safe. I am quite an independent boy so I don't need someone fussing over me so I won't be any bother at all. Also best to be the only animal in the home as other cats or dogs would be too much for me. Also no kids as they would be too overwhelming.
If a quiet retiree is what you are looking for then I am your man!!
NEEDS: indoors only, no sun, no cats, no dogs, no children (under 8), regular brushing
MEDICAL: Senior blood tests recommended 6 monthly.
