My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Cheetah is a 6.5 year old brown tabby cat, gentle soul who came to us after a kind person noticed he needed a little help. He’s been with us since February 2025, slowly learning that people can be kind and treats are very good. Cheetah is still shy, but he’s made big strides. He accepts gentle pets and seeks comfort in the company of other cats. He would thrive in a quiet home with feline friends to help him feel safe and loved. If you have a soft spot for the quiet ones and a peaceful place for a shy sweetheart to land, Cheetah might just be your perfect match.
