Do you ever get the feeling you're being watched? My name is Scotty. I'm the guy in the front. No, I don't have two heads. I just live with roommates who never give me a moment alone! It's okay. I'm an amiable guy and I get along quite well with other cats, even when they're trying to steal my spotlight.

While

Someone has to choose you. When you're like me, though... I'm just Leroy. I'm not the ostentatious type. I'm quiet and peaceful, especially here in the shelter, where I'm not entirely comfortable enough to let loose. I'm about a year old and I'm very sweet and affectionate and love to play! I'm often a little unsure at first when meeting new people, so
