Dorian

My story

“Beauty is a form of Genius – is higher, indeed, than Genius, as it needs no explanation. It is one of the great facts of the world, like sunlight, or springtime, or the reflection in dark waters of that silver shell we call the moon.” --- Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian GrayLeave it to some literary cat lover – both feline friend and bibliophile – to name a gray colored cat after the lead character in an Oscar Wilde tale. While the renowned author’s story centers on a man and our Dorian is female, hers is a beautiful unisex name with an ancient history: the Greek word for a gift from the gods. Dorian is surely that!An exquisite chunk of charcoal, Dorian is a lovely work of art, picture perfect in her “catness.” She can be a tad bit shy at first, but once she knows you`re a friend, she warms up quickly. She adores pets and chin scratches and may even do some butt ups when she`s feeling relaxed! Dorian gets along well with other cats and would do well in a multi-cat household. She is the kind of cat we can easily see sitting next to you on a quiet evening or lazy afternoon as you enjoy reading a book … perhaps even The Picture of Dorian Gray!Are you the armchair buddy for our darling Dorian? Could she find a wonderful warm spot in your heart and, at last, her forever home? Fill out an online adoption application today!
