Rescue:

Handsome Murphy and his siblings Fraya and Lucus were born in a barn in a rural community.
There was not much in the way of cat rescue organizations or vets that do low cost spay neuter
surgeries to keep barn populations down. So, it was not uncommon for a cat colony to grow
and grow and grow. On this particular country property, the kittens were handled gently and
kindly by the children and they received a lot of love and attention. Unfortunately, being outdoors
and with wild life lurking in the woods, one kitten was snatched up by a coyote never to
be seen again. That was the turning point for the family and soon afterwards these three
kittens were transported to the safe foster home of a small cat rescue about an hour’s drive
away. From there they came into Pet Patrol care and have thrived since then.

Personality:

Murphy is a curious kitten and there is not much that he has not explored, played with, taste
tested or sniffed at. He is fearless. He is always looking for something to do, something to
entertain himself with. As an active can he will chase the laser light down the hall, around the
room and up the cat tree. He likes chasing the laser light and springy toys, and of course a
playmate or sibling is fun too. Murphy, when all tuckered out, will either seek out a person to
crawl up onto for a nap on their lap, or a spot up high on a ledge or cat perch. Murphy is ready
to be adopted into his forever home. One that will welcome him into the family and keep him
safely indoors.
