My story

　　Introducing Edgar Allan Poe- or just "Poe" for short. This iconic author wrote a short story titled "The Black Cat" where the title's namesake, Pluto, had a white splotch on his chest.The story had a not-so-happy ending, and little Poe himself came incredibly close to death after finding himself on the euthanasia list at a high-kill shelter. This little 5 month old boy is incredibly affectionate and friendly. He's outgoing, playful, and equal parts energetic and cuddly. He craves human attention and if he's not chasing balls all over the place, he'll be cuddled up on your chest. This little panther does like to dart under feet, so if you've got balance issues, he may not be a good fit. But, if you are looking for an adorable extravert, then Poe is a great choice! He will definitely need a kitty friend to play with in his new home. This black cat is legendary and classic!
