DOB 4/17/26
Hey there, everyone! I’m Lafayette, a friendly, affectionate, easygoing, and fun-loving Bombay mix fella who was named, along with my blood-brother Jefferson in this year of America’s bicentennial, for the famous #Revolutionary-brothers Thomas Jefferson and the Marquis de Lafayette. We’re so much alike, both in our physical and temperamental traits, that Foster Meowmy had to give me a green collar. Admittedly my coat is slightly browner and fuzzier than Jefferson’s; I’m more inquisitive; and I’m possessive of my gold fluff ball which I carry around in my mouth.
We’re both lap cats who LOVE people and who thoroughly enjoy it when Foster Meowmy cuddles and pets us separately. Yes, we luxuriate so much in her attention that her gentle ear scratches and neck rubs cause us to crank up our purr motors to HIGH. We’re always ready for treat time when she dispenses Churus and Temptations.
We’re full of frenetic kitten energy and are never still for long!! We have a blast tumbling and pouncing, climbing and wrestling with each other. We make Foster Meowmy laugh when she watches us chase each other as well as our fluff balls, catnip mice, and spring toys. And you should see us swat at and leap for the feathered wand toy as she waves it over our heads! Yet, whether it’s playing or cuddling with Foster Meowmy, we never compete with each other.
Our Foster Meowmy is the caretaker for a colony of semi-feral community cats. We will always be grateful that, after she noticed that we could eat solid food, Foster Meowmy brought us into her home at the same time that she trapped, spayed, and released our semi-feral momma. We adjusted seamlessly to indoor life with its brimming food/ water bowls and Foster Meowmy’s showering us with affection.
Now I’m ready to ensconce myself in your lap for some serious cuddling, petting, head massages, and purring in exchange for your constant entertainment – whether I’m displaying my soccer or my basketball expertise. Arrange to meet me today! Although we’re available separately, Jefferson and I think it’d be the cat’s meow if we could be adopted together so we could be playmates and cuddle buddies while you’re at work or on vacation.
