My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Mister Misty, a gentle 3-year-old soul in search of a very special kind of home. This sweet boy was surrendered after his owner had to move and couldn’t bring him along, a heartbreaking change has left him feeling unsure, shy, overwhelmed, and a bit shut down here at the shelter. Underneath that worry, though, is a cat who truly wants to feel safe, understood, and loved again. Mister Misty is hoping for a quiet, calm environment—ideally a single-person home where he can take his time and hopefully one day build a deep bond with one special human. He has previously lived with another cat, and may do well in a single-person home with a calm feline companion he can eventually befriend. What he needs most is someone who will offer him consistency, gentleness, and, above all, patience.The most important part of his next journey will be patience—lots of it.

The 3/3/3 rule is an essential guide for Mister Misty’s transition:
• 3 days to decompress
• 3 weeks to adjust to a new routine
• 3 months to settle in and feel truly safe

Mister Misty knows it may take a lot of time for him to build trust, but he’s hopefully on his way to finding the one person who understands him. With a calm home, gentle routines, and someone who’s willing to move at his pace, he can slowly begin to feel safe again. It won’t happen overnight—but for the right person, watching him grow braver, settle in, and finally choose to trust will be an incredibly meaningful experience. Hopefully, with patience and love, Mister Misty will one day feel truly home.
