Archie, the Cat of the Day
Name: Archie
Age: Two years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Tabby
Home: Ontario, Canada
 
   We recently lost a sweet cat to cancer, whom we adopted as a stray twelve years ago, and felt it was time to fill the void and find a new mate for our little female six-year old cat. We wanted to adopt an adult cat that needed a 'forever' home, so I starting searching on the Pet Finder website. When I went to see the cat that I thought I would adopt at the animal shelter, this sweet-faced boy came running up to me immediately, kept rubbing his head on me and purring. It was love at first sight and I ended up adopting him instead! I do still feel sad about leaving the other cats behind including the one that I went to see.

    Archie is such a sweet natured, affectionate cat. He is very friendly with everyone, including his new sister who is still not sure she wants to play with him, but will allow nose sniffing and following each other around. He chirps when he wants to tell you something and loves to hang out in our gardens. We named him after my niece's cat who also passed away recently and was very similar in appearance and personality, so his name is really Archie II. We are so happy that we adopted him as he is a special, handsome boy and I'm madly in love with him.
