13 year old Lewis recently headed off to his new home, and we've just received the sweetest update from his new adopters 🐱⬇️

"Lewis is the perfect little gentleman.

Since coming home, he's been an absolute joy, making us laugh with his quirks. He loves to nap together, sit in the sunshine at the windowsill and play on the staircase like a kitten 🐾

His affectionate nature and gentle personality have already filled our home with so much happiness and he reminds me everyday why senior cats are so special and have so much love to give.

I couldn't imagine our home without him, and I feel incredibly privileged to spend this chapter of his life by his side🖤"
