Artemis is a rescue. He walked into someone’s apartment like he owned the place and ended up at the shelter.

We had to put child locks on every cabinet. We could no longer plastic the windows in the winter. No more potted plants in the house.

He will greet everyone at the door like a dog and will lay in the middle of the table when we try to play games with guests. He is really good at getting into trouble!

We had our windows replaced, and the carpenter said he sat on the end of the board while he was sawing! He will dive bomb us in bed while we are sleeping. Nothing phases him. He keeps our life interesting and full of laughter!

He also has a very caring side. When I’m sick, he won’t leave my side, unless I’m puking – that actually scared him. When I have a migraine, he will sit on the arm of the couch and gently paw my forehead. He is super empathetic when he wants to be!
