Minion

Minion is a male Domestic Short Hair available for adoption in Alligator Creek (Townsville, Queensland).

Minion is a calm, loyal cat and a true gentleman, with a sweet habit of squeaking instead of meowing.

He loves being in the same room as his people, and he's playful enough to chase a string for as long as you'll wiggle it.

His brother Oscar is his closest companion. The two play together, groom each other and curl up for shared snoozes.

Minion and Oscar are looking for a home together. Meet Oscar here.

A little about Minion:
🐾 Loves to perch on your chest and knead when the mood takes him
🐾 Adores watching animals on TV, and takes his viewing seriously
🐾 Lights up at a string or toy to chase around the room
🐾 Relaxed around dogs, including the ones who share his home
🐾 Big fan of a high perch on the cat tree

Minion's days have a steady, satisfying rhythm. Breakfast comes first, then a round of play before a good long snooze.

Later he'll settle in front of the TV to watch the animals on screen, then it's another play session before dinner. It's a simple routine, and he takes real pleasure in every part of it.

He's independent enough to enjoy his own company and affectionate enough to come and find yours.

His affection is deliberate and all his own. He chooses a spot nearby. He climbs onto your chest to knead. He joins in the moment a toy comes out.

These are the habits of a cat who knows exactly what he likes, and shares it with the people he trusts.

With new people, Minion stays calmly in the room and heads to his perch on the cat tree to take everything in. From there, he warms up in his own time and joins in.

Minion would flourish in an indoor home, whether it's calm or lively. He's easygoing around dogs and comfortable with children aged six and up.

He'll suit a guardian who appreciates a low-maintenance, loyal companion and enjoys a cat who shows his love in his own way.

A cat tree to perch on, a few string toys and a good view of the TV will give him everything he enjoys.

Picture a quiet evening with Minion stretched out on your chest, kneading away and squeaking softly.

Or an afternoon on the couch together, both of you watching a nature documentary, and him not missing a single bird.

Minion is a gentle, loyal companion with plenty of play in him, and he's ready for a home where he can be himself.
