This handsome brown tabby is the epitome of feline affection. With his endearing personality and charming demeanor, Russell is ready to steal your heart and become your lifelong feline friend. 💕
Russell is a true lovebug who adores cuddling. He’ll snuggle up to you whenever you’re ready to relax, and he never wants to leave your side. Occasionally, he’ll surprise you by hopping into your lap, seeking some extra warmth and affection. Russell’s playful side shines through when it’s time for some fun, showing off his goofy run and entertaining antics. Despite his playful nature, Russell is incredibly respectful of other animals’ space, making him an ideal companion for households with other pets. 🐩 🐈⬛
Russell is not only a cuddle connoisseur but also an extremely chill cat. He doesn’t mind being picked up, groomed or given medicine, making him a breeze to care for. This easygoing attitude extends to his behavior; Russell listens attentively when you tell him to stop, showing off his polite manners. You’ll often find him joining you when it’s time for a nap or heading to bed, ready to snuggle up and keep you company throughout the night. And let’s not forget his love for treats—Russell’s eyes light up at the sight of his favorite snacks, making him even more irresistible.
Russell would thrive in a loving home where he can receive plenty of attention and affection. Whether you’re looking for a cuddle buddy, a playful companion, or a laid-back friend, Russell fits the bill perfectly. His respectful nature makes him suitable for households with other pets, and his easygoing personality makes him an excellent choice for families of all ages.

It’s hard to create a joyful connection when your dearest doggo is suffering from chronic pain. That is why West Paw recently became certified!
Evie Tummon, Head Nurse at , talks about how to create fun, engaging ways to bond with your pet dealing with osteoarthritis:
“Mental stimulation is such an important part when it comes to the multimodal approach to managing OA. Great enrichment toys for your dog are perfect if they are unable to exercise in a way they used to. Puzzle feeding is a very fun and exciting way to engage with your pet, especially when they may not be able to exercise or play in ways that they used to. Providing a nonslip surface and incorporating a West Paw puzzle game into their routine can be a game-changer! The puzzle toys are great even for those who like to have a good chew, they’re really robust!”
