GLOUCESTER TOWNSHIP — After looking so sad and depressed it went viral, a South Jersey cat has landed a new home in time for the holidays.
“Fishtopher” is a 5-year-old Bengal domestic short-haired male, according to the Homeward Bound Pet Adoption Center in Blackwood.
A profile listed on Petfinder by the animal shelter along with a heartbreaking photo described the stray dog as “sweet, easy-going, laid-back” and affectionate.
“Fishtopher is a big, cheeky lad,” he continued, who “loves to cuddle up in arms, it seems to reassure him.”
Since a Twitter user shared the list on November 24, it has been shared more than 21,000 times and received nearly 170,000 likes.
The cat was adopted in two days.
