Lovely cat needs a home

[badger]

I am a quiet, well-behaved fellow with a wonderful thick black coat and white boots. Someone somewhere loved me once because I am neutered and my front paws are declawed, which makes me a very poor candidate for living outside. I love laps, cuddles and games, but generally wait until they are offered. Another cat would be fine, as long as s/he is gentle, because I don't like to fight. In fact, I am a little depressed about my situation; I don't understand how I got here or why my former owner hasn't found me. What I really need is a new start.
