Kane County Animal Control Pet of the Week - Dagwod

​

“We may have pets, but when it comes to unconditional love, they are the masters." – Donald L. Hicks, American author, poet

There's nothing wrong with allowing a kitten to rule your human universe, especially if that kitten is Dagwood, a 6-month-old neutered gray, black and white Domestic Shorthair found in someone's garage.   

Without much effort, he seemingly has put an enchanted spell on everyone he meets at KCAC. As scared as he was when he arrived, it didn't take long before he found his kitten groove, his cool-cat style, his own little niche. 

Even though he is still a kitten, Dagwood will work his magic on whoever enters his space. He will first run to them like a little lost kitten coming out of the woods, looking for his momma. After he plays the sympathy card, he pushes his head into the person's hands, practically begging for the petting session to begin.

Dagwood's large personality forces aside whatever shyness he may feel when he allows his showman-like nature to come through. Get a load of his talent for stretching out oh-so-very far! He can do it multiple times with the help of some chin scratches in between.

And, if that's not enough, he has a unique way of getting someone's attention by giving a small, smokey, raspy Rod Stewart-ish “meow."  Just one, only one.

Dagwood does well with women and men and he loves other cats! Everything about him says he's a keeper, one of a kind, one for the ages.

And he's definitely going to rule your universe.
