Pet of the Week: Marvin

Written By Sarah Stephenson

Marvin is a male domestic shorthair with tuxedo-patterned fur. He is 6 years old, which is about 40 years in cat years!! He’s not super into food but he does like his kibble and greenies (a type of cat treat, Genie loves them too!!).

His sister, Phoebe will eat almost anything though, unlike Marvin. His favorite toy is pipecleaners in various colors. An annoying habit he has is that he chews on anything plastic! From Amazon packages to sandwich bags, nothing is safe from his desire for plastic.

Some fun facts about Marvin is that he talks a lot. Apparently he has full conversations with his owners sometimes! And, he used to play fetch as a younger cat.
