Archer is big. Archer is orange. Archer is lumpy (fatty tumors). Archer is the best big brother any cat could ask for. He is by far the loudest purrer in the house, and also the lickiest cat I have ever encountered.
We got Archer from One of a Kind Pets after spending a weekend agonizing over whether or not to. He was still there, so he was coming home with us.
When he was 4, he got blocked twice. A couple hosp stays, a new diet, and he has been all good since.
