**SAFE 08/18/16** BEGINNER RATED 20 LB OREO IS EVERYONE’S FAVORITE!! A staff member writes: Oreo shamelessly flirted with me. She rolled over, batted her eyes at me, then beckoned me with a sexy meow. Then she slowly stretched her adorably chubby body, displaying the breadth of her softness. Like most pleasingly plump kitties, Oreo liked strong petting on her head and cheeks. Watching her enjoy the petting was so delightful. After a few minutes of this pleasure, I decided to give her a shoulder rub. (For some reason, fat cats tend to like this, but leaner cats…not really). As I slowly rubbed her shoulder, she seemed to be in utter ecstasy. She purred like a lawn mower and air-kneaded her paws expressively. I have no words to describe how cute she looked, leaning into my hand and bracing against the kennel wall to get a deeper massage, then turning over on her other side and stretching her paws out in sheer bliss. All I can say is that I had so much fun watching her. Oreo is a demonstrative cat who is compatible with anyone willing to pet her on the head and give her shoulder rubs. Come to the Manhattan Care Center and see if Oreo is the cat for you. A volunteer writes: Oreos are sweet, but this Oreo is sweeter. When you approach her kennel, she looks at you as if to say,” okay, time for pets!” Oreo is an A plus in all categories! She is used to being in a house with other cats and children. She likes to be groomed. When you start petting her, she starts to purr. Don’t let the numbers fool you. So, if you are looking for sweeter then sweet, then Oreo is your gal. Everyone likes to think of middle age as a time of renewal! Oreo is ready to do great things with you. You can find this loving beauty at the Manhattan Animal Care Center.
