Ripple

Good Home | young | male

Who else but Wilt the Stilt could I have inherited my super-long legs & tail from? Not to mention my incredible athletic talent – no one can play with the wand toy like me!

And just like Wilt, I came from humble beginnings. He was born in Philly, and initially didn’t even want to play basketball, but his potential was clear. I was a feral kitten, trapped in a Bed-Stuy backyard. Because I was older when I was trapped, I didn’t think I wanted to be friends with humans, but the cat experts have determined that I have the potential to be great, just like Wilt did.

Now I know what you’re saying – Ripple, you’re much too shy to be related to Wilt Chamberlain. He was famously charming. But did you know that Wilt was shy & insecure as a teenager too? Just give me a couple of months and the ladies will be lining up, I swear! I’m incredibly sweet, I like being held, and I’m friends with all the cats and kittens at the adoption center. (I’ll tell you a secret: the way to my heart is through tummy rubs and back scratches!)

Back when Wilt was playing ball, cutting-edge fashion on the court was limited to his headband. Nowadays, body art is more commonplace. I’m proud to say that I’m carrying on his tradition of trailblazing with my ear tip. It honors my Brooklyn street cat past, and makes me look very cool indeed.
