Marty Schwartz

Marty Schwartz sounds like someone who should be running a very important business meeting. His actual agenda? Snacks, chin scratches and a thorough investigation of every open doorway.

This handsome gentleman is only a year and a half old, but he's already got a rather charming personality. Marty arrived at our shelter as a stray and initially had plenty to say about his unfamiliar surroundings. Thankfully, a few tasty treats helped break the ice, and it wasn't long before he decided the people looking after him were worth getting to know.

These days, Marty is much more interested in affection than keeping his distance. He'll approach to say hello, lean into chin scratches and stretch himself out with one little arm extended, looking like he's just settled in for a very important afternoon of doing absolutely nothing. It's hard not to smile when a cat gets that comfortable around you!

Marty also has a curious streak and has shown a particular interest in exploring beyond his enclosure. His future family will need to be mindful of open doors and windows, keeping him safely indoors with plenty of opportunities to investigate his surroundings.

With a name like Marty Schwartz, you'd expect a gentleman with a little character. And that's exactly what you're getting. He's friendly, curious and already has his relaxation technique perfected. Now all he needs is a home where he can put those skills to good use.

We encourage you to come and meet Marty Schwartz at our North Melbourne shelter as soon as possible, as our cats cannot be placed on hold.
