He looks as if he was well cared for, very friendly, enjoys pats and quite chatty if you talk to him. We already have two cats so he is not too worried by other cats and actually came through the cat door the other night so not at all scared although shoot back through. If you know who he is, may have just moved into the area or someone that may have lost this lovely young cat please get back to me asap. Maree
