My story

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

Meet Simon – A Loyal Lap Cat Looking for His Second Chance

Simon is about 9 years old, and his story is one of quiet devotion.

He made a big move from Ohio to Texas with his beloved mom. Through every change, Simon was her constant — her lap companion, her comfort, her steady presence. Now, as she transitions into memory care, she is heartbroken to say goodbye to the sweet boy who has been by her side through so much.

And Simon? He’s confused… but still so full of love.

This handsome orange-and-white gentleman hasn’t always had an easy road. Earlier in life, Simon was nearly feral — unsure of people, unsure of safety. But with patience and love, he blossomed into something extraordinary: a deeply loyal, bonded lap cat who gives his whole heart once he trusts you.

He may be a little skittish at first. New environments make him cautious. But give him a quiet space, gentle patience, and a little time… and you will watch something beautiful happen.

He will choose you.
He will sit beside you.
He will become your shadow.

Simon is not a flashy kitten. He’s a soulful companion. The kind who bonds deeply and loves quietly. The kind who curls into your lap and makes the world feel softer.

We truly believe a shelter environment would set him back emotionally. After everything he’s overcome, he deserves stability — not a kennel. Not noise. Not fear.

He deserves a soft landing.

If you have a calm home and a gentle heart, Simon will reward you with loyalty beyond measure. He has already proven he can transform. Now he just needs someone willing to see past the first shy moment and into the devoted heart underneath.

Please help us give this sweet boy the peaceful second chapter he deserves.
