Meet my latest addition!

[HermioneJeanGranger]

We recently adopted a gorgeous black tom cat. He's nearly 2 and just lovely. His previous owners apparently couldn't cope with him due to his size and personality. He is big - we think Maine Coon crossed with a shorthaired breed.

Meet Purrlock!

He's gorgeous and I love the name!

Absolutely gorgeous boy !

Can't even imagine how someone couldn't cope with a cuddler like that People are fucking weird.

Enjoy him, he clearly needs to have you

Omg he's a beaut!

He's lovely - I'm sure you'll be very happy together :)

Purrlock gorgeous lad.

Gorgeous boy, lots of him to love! I met a 9 kilo cat yesterday-he is mahoosive!

He does have a slightly.....challenging look on his face. What a gorgeous boy.

What is his personality actually like and why didn't the previous owners get on with it?

He's a bit nervous but if you let him approach he's very friendly - lots of head rubs and he loves having his belly rubbed!

I think they were a bit intimidated by his size but I also think they couldn't be bothered to play with him or fuss him much :(

Bloody love the name and he is beautiful!!! Reminds me of my old boy Loki!

He is magnificent! His previous owners must have been mad to let him go.

He's absolutely gorgeous!!

A wacking great big, black cat, what's not to like??

Actually, in my second study of his picture, his look seems to have changed for me - not so much challenging/confrontational as 'wistful'.

He's a gorgeous lad at any rate.

What a very poised and elegant boy Purrlock is!

Intimidated by his size, indeed. Not like he'd the size of a St. Bernard. Sounds like he'll be much happier with you though.

*he's, not he'd!

what a beautiful boy! People are stupid-hes hardly likely to savage them in their beds is he?!

Big cats a great!

What a handsome devil he is

How big is he, he just looks pretty normal sized from that pic.
He's a braw looking fella.

He's a champ! I love black cats.

More pics!!

Lovely boy, think there's a bit of Panther in there. 😄

More photos!
