My story

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

Meet Buddy — The Gentle Giant with a Heart of Gold!

Buddy is a big, shy sweetheart who may seem a little reserved at first, but don’t let his size fool you — underneath that quiet exterior is a playful, loving boy just waiting for the right home to help him feel safe and confident.

He’s searching for a quiet, indoor-only home where life moves at a calm pace. Respectful teens who understand giving him space and letting him come to them should be just fine. Since Buddy hasn’t shared space with other animals before, we’re not sure how he feels about furry roommates — slow, thoughtful introductions would be key if they’re in the picture.

Buddy’s dream setup includes:
Plenty of cozy hiding and napping spots where he can feel secure
Lots of toys, especially interactive ones and anything with catnip
Cat trees & scratching posts for stretching his long legs
Window perches for peaceful birdwatching sessions
Treats, wet food, and catnip — the fastest way to his heart

With a little patience and a lot of love, Buddy blossoms into a loyal, playful companion who fills a room with calm, comforting energy. If you’re looking for a sweet, soft-hearted big boy to share your quiet home, Buddy might just be your perfect match.
