Dusty is a handsome 5-year-old gray/gold tabby found as an abandoned kitten, and he's grown into a loyal, loving companion.
He's shy when he first meets new people — but once he feels safe, his true personality shines. He loves to play with toys but is always up for some cuddles. He is fully litter box trained and loves his scratching post. He alsogets along great with other cats!
