Are you seeking a distinguished gentle-cat in the tri-state area? Does a senior sweetie strike your fancy? Meet Lendell! It’s true what they say about fine wine, and this cat is no exception!

Lendell is a seasoned chap who knows what the best parts of life are: to love and be loved. He especially enjoys sitting on laps, chin scratches, lap time, being near his humans, curling up in laps, demanding pets … did we mention laps yet? He’s a social, confident kitty who settles into new environments quickly.

He is currently in foster care, awaiting a home of his own, and his foster family has nothing but wonderful things to say about him. They say that Lendell is the most affectionate cat! He enjoys following his people around the house like the most adorable shadow.

If you enjoy talkative cats, Lendell is definitely your guy! He is a chatty cat who won’t hesitate to tell you when it’s time for snuggles or meals, or he simply just wants to welcome you home. He is also known for having a rumbly purr. He may be 14 years old, but he’ll prove to you that age is just a number! He enjoys playtime and is obsessed with his favorite toy—a catnip banana—and he’ll never say no to a wand toy session.

Lendell would likely be a good fit for most families, but we don’t know how he would do with other cats or dogs. When you apply to adopt this purr-fect cat, a Matchmaker can also give you tips to help set him up for success in your home! Anyone would be lucky to be friends with this ten-out-of-ten cat, and even luckier to have him join their family.
