Murphy is a gentle, orange and white sweetheart with a calm soul and a heart full of love. Recently surrendered due to his previous owner’s health, this laid-back boy is adjusting with grace and patience. Murphy gets along well with other cats and would be a wonderful companion in a quiet, caring home. He’s incredibly affectionate—he melts for chin scratches and happily leans in for long petting sessions. Whether he’s lounging in a sunny spot or relaxing by your side, Murphy brings a peaceful, comforting presence wherever he goes. His easygoing nature and loving personality make him the kind of cat that’s simply a joy to be around. If you’re looking for a sweet, mellow friend to share your space and heart, Murphy may be your perfect match.
