Shadow is a handsome adult boy with a quiet, gentle nature. True to his name, he’s shy and reserved, preferring to take things slowly and observe before jumping in. New environments and people can be a little overwhelming for him at first, but with patience and consistency, Shadow begins to feel safe and settle in.
Once he trusts you, Shadow shows his softer side—enjoying calm companionship, relaxing nearby, and accepting gentle affection on his own terms. He would thrive in a peaceful home with a patient adopter who understands that shy cats form deep, meaningful bonds when given time.
