Our Orlando was named for the star of the popular children’s book “Orlando The Marmalade Cat.” This young adult male who was rescued  as yet another homeless stray, has a warm, gentle, sunny personality. Orlando seems to adapt easily  to new situations  and  interacts well with other cats and with humans of all ages. Although he’s very affectionate, he’s still youngster so he’s an active, playful kitty who doesn’t sit still long enough to be classified as a lap cat. We  believe that with time and maturity, he’ll become an orange tabby lap lover. Orlando ’s foster mom is fascinated by his little-kitten high pitched voice.

Update March 2016: Orlando will live forever here on his page and in our hearts, but our beautiful boy crossed the Rainbow Bridge on March 15, 2016. He was 6 and one half. Visit our Rainbow Bridge  page to read his mom's beautiful tribute.
