My story

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

Meet Fezzik! Fezzik is one of four special kittens whose journey has been marked by patience, progress, and promise. He and his brothers arrived at the shelter very unsocial, fearful, and intolerant of handling. After several weeks of dedicated work from our staff, the boys began showing positive changes and were able to continue their growth in foster care.

They then spent additional time with a foster who specializes in kitten socialization. While Fezzik remains very shy and independent, his foster has seen encouraging behaviors emerge. Fezzik regularly comes out to engage in play and interact from a distance, but he is still easily startled by loud noises or quick movements and prefers to retreat when he feels unsure. Fezzik will need very patient adopters, a home without small children, and a calm, predictable environment where trust can build slowly over time.

Fezzik is more reserved than his brother Miracle Max, preferring to take things slowly and approach on his own terms. He may not seek out handling yet, but he shows curiosity, engagement, and steady progress through interactive play and routine. His confidence continues to build best in predictable, low-pressure environments.

Fezzik shares a strong and important bond with Miracle Max. Max’s outgoing energy helps encourage Fezzik to explore and engage more comfortably, while their sibling play builds confidence for both of them. Their dynamic is deeply beneficial to Fezzik’s continued socialization, and they will do best being adopted together. If you work from home, enjoy a quieter household, or are looking for a meaningful bond that develops over time, Fezzik and Miracle Max could be an incredibly rewarding pair. With patience and consistency, Fezzik has the potential to continue growing into a confident companion in a home that understands him!
