Hi, I’m Simba! I am a VERY rambunctious cat who is pretty independent. I lived in a home with younger children that didn’t fully understand how to properly interact with cats. I am a very high energy cat who does get frustrated if I can’t get that energy out. I do play with my mouth and claws, so I do need to be taught that that isn’t very nice. I do not enjoy being held or picked up a lot either. I can be pretty affectionate on my own terms though. I do also enjoy playing with scratching posts or cat towers. Because of my rough play style, I should go to a home with children ages 11 and up who understand high energy/independent cats. I would not be a good cat for a first time owner. I am only about 9 months old, but I am over 12 pounds so I will also need a family that can help me lose some weight. Will you be this naughty boys’ forever family?
