History: I came into the Vancouver SPCA Feb 9th as a stray cat.

I am shaved a bit there, but otherwise I'm such a handsome guy. You must come and see me and say "hi". I would be a great friend for any family and I would love you forever. Also, I am good with kids. We had some kids come to the shelter and I liked them all. I love to sit on your lap.
Ideal Home: I am looking for a home that will keep me safely indoors so I do not get injured again. I can go to a home which has never owned a cat before. Please tell the SPCA staff you saw me on the 95 Crave website.
