“He waits by my (bedroom) door and comes in first thing in the morning to sit on my belly. He is very kind and sweet and a very well behaved cat.”

Samson is quite a character. He loves to play fetch, and follows his humans from room to room and finds a spot nearby where he will sit and keep them company.

Zurbel adopted Samson from his brother who couldn’t keep the cat due to work schedule. When Zurbel met Samson, it was love at first sight. Even as a kitten, he was a big kitty with large ears.
