My story

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

Meet Heavy Metal – A Softie with a Rockstar Name!

Heavy Metal may sound hardcore, but this boy is actually a slightly shy, sweet, and playful kitty who just needs a little time to warm up before showing off his gentle charm. Once he’s comfortable, his playful side comes out—and it’s adorable to watch.

He’s looking for a quiet, indoor-only home with mature kids who can respect his boundaries and give him the space he needs to adjust. Heavy Metal’s experience with other animals is unknown, so slow, thoughtful introductions would be important if there are other pets in the home.

Heavy Metal’s Ideal Setup:
Plenty of comfy hiding spots and cozy nap zones
Cat trees and scratching posts for climbing and confidence-building
Window perches for sunbathing and bird-watching
TONS of toys, especially interactive ones and catnip

Favorite Things:
Treats, wet food, catnip, playtime, and relaxing in his favorite cozy spots

If you’re ready to give a gentle soul the patience and love he deserves, Heavy Metal is ready to turn up the purrs and steal your heart.
