Dan Dan aka Mr Noodles aka Mushu Pork is a delightfully docile boy with unique markings and a sassy face looking for a calm and loving forever home with his bonded brother Sammy.
Dan Dan is a neutered ~6 year old male and while he can have a sassiness to his face don't be fooled- he's a very gentle and sweet boy who is learning how to love and accept affection. He was treated by ACR for some polyps in his ear and had an issue with one eye but currently has a clean bill of health and no ongoing medical concerns but you will need to keep an eye on his ear to ensure it doesn't get too dirty inside.
Dan Dan can be pet and is becoming more accepting of affection and being brushed and when he's had enough he will simply get up and move a foot away. He genuinely seems to enjoy being around people and will sometimes follow you from room to room or come out to greet you as you come home. He absolutely loves curling up in the windows and watching the world go by and breathing in the fresh air and will otherwise be splayed out on a fluffy blanket sleeping ‘superman' style with his paws stretched out in front of him. Dan Dan has a deliciously loud purr and will often come sit in front of you at nights waiting patiently for you to play with him. Loves dangly toys and loose catnip toys he can roll around with.
Sammy and Dan Dan are bonded best friends who will melt your heart with how affectionate they are with each other, particularly in the mornings- they will mash their faces together, purring their heads off while they rub their chins on anything they can find as they wait for breakfast. Very occasionally they will have a minor scrap if they're bored.
They love being by the window or curled up on the bed or a fluffy blanket and both love laser pointers, catnip and dangly toys (although it will take them a bit to get comfortable enough to play with you). They will jump on surfaces to explore sometimes but they never knock anything down. I have a lot of plants and neither has ever nibbled at them, knocked them over or dug in the soil, although they do tend to make a bit of a mess with their litter box- they dig quite a bit and some litter will end up outside the box. I got a large corner litter box with a cover and put a mat down in front of the entrance which has mitigated the issue a lot.
The boys will come and sleep on your bed with you but they don't yet stay the night. They are very playful, particularly at night. They aren't too fussy with food but tend to prefer shredded/chunky gravy wet food over pate and will both eat a healthy amount of dry food.
Sammy and Dan Dan will thrive in a calm, relatively quiet low-medium activity household. They need a lot of patience and humans who understand that they don't always want to be touched, although I'm confident that with time, constant companionship and love they will end up being rather affectionate boys. They likely wouldn't do well in a house with young children or other pets.
Both absolutely love napping in the window and enjoying the views and fresh air, so ideally a home with lots of windows although they need to be screened in to prevent escape attempts. They genuinely seem to enjoy being around people, albeit not being touched, so an environment where humans are present most of the time would be great.
Dan has a history of ear infections and had a corrective surgery called ventral bulla osteotomy in 2025. He has had no issues since and chances of further ear infections are low. He is up-to-date on vaccines and has been treated for fleas and parasites.
