PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BELOW. IT WILL ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS. If you still have questions after, we are happy to respond through email. It is a long read and a long adoption process. Please understand we are ensuring that our babies go to great homes and we don&#39;t know you personally (yet). Understand that this is an adoption of a beautiful little soul that deserves the absolute best life. The average lifespan of a cat is 13 to 20 years. Some cats even live into their thirties, although this is far less common. So don&#39;t let that discourage you from adopting an adult cat! DR. RANDOLPH BELL and his 3 siblings (DR KIT VOSS - NURSE NICOLETTE &ldquo;NIC&rdquo; NEVI N - DR CONRAD HAWKINS) were living in a rough area in Hemet, California. The nice lady that found them was feeding them, until we were able to get them fixed and into the rescue. Meet DR. RANDOLPH BELL, a bashful yet playful Gray tabby from Hemet, California, whose soft stripes hide a heart full of curiosity and a love for toy-fueled adventures. With his sleek silver coat, glowing amber eyes, and a name worthy of a TV drama, DR. RANDOLPH BELL is the kind of cat who keeps things low-key at first&mdash;but give him a toy mouse or a jingly ball, and suddenly the shy guy turns into a playful pouncer! While he may be hesitant around new people, he&#39;s endlessly intrigued by the world around him. Every corner, crinkle, and feather wand holds potential for discovery, and he&#39;s happiest when he&#39;s got a feline buddy by his side to join the fun. DR. RANDOLPH BELL was found on the streets alongside his siblings, and together they&rsquo;ve formed a tight-knit crew of little explorers. He&rsquo;s not bonded to any one sibling in particular, but he thrives when he has other cats around to show him the ropes, wrestle with, or curl up beside after a long play session. His inquisitive nature shines brightest in the presence of feline friends, and his bravery grows when he sees others being brave first. Though he&rsquo;s still learning that hands can bring comfort, he&rsquo;s already warming up to gentle pets and calm voices. With the right family who can offer patience, a sense of routine, and plenty of toys (did we mention he loves toys?), DR. RANDOLPH BELL will continue to grow into a confident, affectionate companion. Treats help, too&mdash;he&rsquo;s not above letting his guard down for a crunchy snack! DR. RANDOLPH BELL is looking for a calm, nurturing home with a fellow cat or two and caregivers who understand that every shy heart just needs a little time and tenderness to open fully. His journey is just beginning&mdash;will you be the one to help him write the next chapter of discovery and delight? To welcome DR. RANDOLPH BELL into your family, apply at Workinwhiskers.com DR. RANDOLPH BELL is a DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR / EGYPTIAN MAU STRPPED TABBY MIX. He is about 10 months old and is good with cats. He has never been around young children or dogs. DR.
