ADOPTED - FRANKLIN, 1 year 10 month old male RAGDOLL-x - Black


ADOPTED ...

FRANKLIN (green eyes) was surrendered to ARRG along with his sister, ANNABELLE (golden eyes) (#2874), because it was discovered a child in the family is allergic to cats. As you can see from the photos, they aren't your classic Ragdoll colouring, so a predecessor has been crossed with a moggie. However they are both sweethearts!

Since these siblings have been together since birth, it would be lovely to see them adopted together.

ARRIVED IN CARE: 8 AUGUST 2022.

FRANKLIN may be a little reserved on first meeting, but he will quickly bond with his human guardians, given the appropriate love and attention.

Former owner says about Franklin:
'Franklin loves everyone he meets and will be your best friend in a matter of seconds. He will also love every house guest you have. May stalk you to the shower as running water is his favourite thing. Frank, while much less scruffy than his counterpart, also loves a good scratch behind the ears and around the collar.
Annabelle and Franklin's favourite toy in life is a stray hair tie and this leads to hours of entertainment, for you and them. They are very co-dependent and spend most of the day together, be it playing or snuggled down for a nap.'
