Daffy — The Gentle Giant with the Biggest Heart Hello there! I'm Daffy, a big, fluffy Maine Coon mix with an even bigger heart. I was a beloved family cat for many years, but when my person moved into assisted living, she wasn't able to bring me along. A devoted family member wanted to make sure I would always be safe, so they found me a safe haven with Give Me Shelter while I wait for my next forever family. If you're looking for an affectionate cat, I may be your perfect match. I absolutely adore people. My favorite thing in the world is being petted, and I'm not shy about asking for attention. I'll headbutt your hand, your toes, or even your forehead if that's what it takes to remind you that I deserve more pets. When I see you, I'll often greet you with my signature move—a dramatic flop onto the floor, followed by loud purrs and rolling around until I've received the proper amount of affection. Once you sit down, I'll come running. I love curling up in laps, making biscuits, and turning humans into my personal furniture. If you're lucky, you might even catch me making biscuits in the air while I relax. I'm also a curious fellow. I enjoy watching the world from the window, listening to birds and neighborhood sounds, and investigating cozy hiding spots. Laundry hampers, blankets, and small dark nooks are some of my favorite places to relax. I'm also very interested in unattended cups of water, so you'll quickly learn not to leave your drink where I can reach it! Like many cats, I can be a little cautious when exploring a new home at first. I may take a few days to fully venture out and investigate my surroundings, but I'm never shy about meeting people. Once I know where the people are, that's exactly where I want to be. I do have a couple of special needs. First, I'm currently on a weight-loss journey. The vet would like me to lose about six pounds, and I'm already making great progress. My future family will need to help me continue my healthy lifestyle so I can feel my very best. Second, all this luxurious fluff requires some grooming. I enjoy looking handsome, but brushing isn't exactly my favorite activity. A patient adopter who can work with me a little at a time will help keep my coat looking its best. I may occasionally let you know when I've had enough, so understanding cat body language is a plus! I've lived with another cat before and did just fine, but these days I'm quite happy being king of my castle. If you're looking for a cat who will happily soak up all your love and attention, I'm more than up for the job. If you're looking for a sweet, affectionate companion who will fill your home with purrs, headbutts, biscuits, dramatic flops, and plenty of love, I might just be your guy.
