Bridget and Rich were grieving their beloved cat Joey after he passed, but Joey's best bud and bonded brother Goofy was also deeply affected. The couple supported Goofy through the transition as best they could but for some kitties, they really need a cat companion. Goofy is an orange guy with a big personality, they described to us a golden retriever in a cat costume. Several cats seemed like a potential match but one stood out, our lil tabby of all trades Marky Mark. Snuggly? Check. Playful? Uh huh. Down to get into some antics with another cat? Oh yeah!
From day one of arrival, Goofy declared he was ready to meet this new stranger so keeping them separated was a challenge. But Goofy was not only insistent, he was right! The boys met and basically signaled an immediate, invisible handshake: brothers? Brothers! They immediately played together in a cardboard box and it turned out Marky Mark was ready to hold his own against Goofy, which was more fun for both. They play, sleep and eat together all the time. Marky Mark sleeps with Bridget, Goofy sleeps with Robert. Marky is now Marvin, and is exactly where he was needed and wanted. Congrats adoption #2095! An update from his parents below:
